Digital Power and its Undoing

How do we understand and resist the power of digital technologies in an era of technofascism, algorithmic capitalism, and online violence? And how can we imagine alternative technological futures rooted in justice, the commons, and plural ways of knowing?

This event brings together scholars from different fields to critically examine AI governance, gender-based violence, and algorithmic power—before shifting toward degrowth, digital commons, and pluriversal approaches to technology. Join us for a discussion on both the crises and possibilities of our digital present and future.

How can you participate? Join us in person or online by registering for the Zoom Meeting or watching live on YouTube.
