*/Digital practices and global inequalities/*
/DigiGov Winter School 1-3 Feb //2023/
Digital practices determine how we are able to access resources and 
infrastructures. They co-shape and reflect existing dependencies and 
inequalities but they also amplify and perpetuate them. The 
*interdisciplinary and international DigiGov Winter School 2023* 
<https://digigov.univie.ac.at/teaching/digigov-virtual-winter-school-digital-practices-and-global-inequalities/> will 
therefore explore:
*/How do digital practices shape global inequalities?/*
*/How do global inequalities shape digital practices?/*
*/
/*
Together with our members and affiliates as well as external experts 
from various disciplines and fields of practice, we will:

  * dive into topics such as digital activism driven by social change
    across the globe, data governance, and how to assess and
    operationalize public value
  * address inequities with a focus on ‘extractive practices’ and the
    in/visibilities of dependencies and exploitation using the
    socio-technical spheres around AI as exploratory space
  * discuss the enforcement of digital fundamental rights in Europe and
    beyond and through the lens of experienced NGO professionals.
