Green politics and digital society: join us!
The Digital/Green/Society, 14-16 May, Belgrade
The issues of climate crises and the rapid development of information technologies are closely related, although the public generally does not discuss it enough. The processes of exploitation of natural resources for the purpose of creating and maintaining the global digital infrastructure have an increasing influence on socio-political relations.
If you are an environmental or digital rights activist, a researcher, involved in green policies, or just concerned about these issues, join us for the event where we will discuss current challenges and potential advocacy plans for the future at the intersection of green policies, human rights and technology.
Please register for the event at this link, the full conference program will be announced by mid-April.
