Impulse
Platform governance: How can we shape existing digital platforms in a democratic way? And are there possible solutions for alternative models?
We want to generate impulses for reflecting in the most central questions around platform governance. Among other things, we shed light on alternative communication infrastructures such as Fediverse, engage with participation formats such as platform councils, and discuss the dynamics around climate and gender disinformation. With our impulses, we firstly outline the relevant topics and issues, secondly we provide an insight into the most important sources and thirdly we offer analyses and concrete policy recommendations.
You also want to set an impulse? Please get in touch with us.
