Digital Transformation : Digital Transformation
We live in a digital era where enterprises and authorities see the need to adopt digital technology to foster their work and adapt to new realities; digital transformation has changed the interaction between the public and private sectors while providing new channels for policymaking.
We see digital transformation as an important trend. As the Global Innovation Hub of the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom, we aim to leverage our work to foster democracy through digital innovations, inclusive decision-making processes, a better understanding of technology, and the delivery of liberal values.
Along with these initiatives, we also recognize that digital transformation might bring challenges to democracy. For example, how disinformation campaigns grow to a larger scale and with broader impact, and how privacy and other rights are at stake with the help of digital technologies.
As part of our project work, we also propose policy papers on current issues, which always include policy recommendations for decision-makers.
