Our International Conference "Time to Reshape the Digital Society" celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the CRIDS happened at the Faculty of Law of the University of Namur on the 18th and 19th of November 2021 (full address: Rempart de la Vierge 5, 5000 Namur).

Full Programme 

During 2 days, more than 50 renowned speakers talked about their field of expertise and animated sessions about the following themes:

- Artificial Intelligence, Ethics and Law
- Governance and Regulation
- Open Data & Competition
- Identity, Trust and Digital citizenship
- Blockchain and Smart Contracts
- Applying the GDPR

The theme of the anniversary conference was to reflect on the future of our digital society to make it a better place for the generations to come. Over the past 40 years we have seen technology develop and many attempts to tame and frame its impact on society. There have been some successes but also some failures. The conference gathered academics, researchers and practitioners from all over the world and from different disciplines (law, sociology, philosophy, communication and information studies, etc.) to reflect on a future framework for the development of a better digital society.
