The Digital Enlightenment Forum is a not-for-profit organisation aiming to shed light, stimulate debate and provide guidance on today’s rapid technological changes and their impact on society and its governance. It examines digital technologies and their application openly with essential societal values in mind. Such values might need to be given novel forms taking advantage of both today’s knowledge and unprecedented access to information.
