NRP 77 is organising a total of four dialogue events together with partners, where selected research results will be presented and their practical relevance discussed. All dialogue events are open to the public and free of charge.

In order to ensure the exchange of knowledge relating to digital transformation research, an in-depth exchange between researchers and practitioners is required. To promote this exchange, NRP 77 – together with partners – is organising a series of dialogue events in autumn 2024. Research results relating to three different key topics will be presented and discussed in view of their practical relevance. The events are free of charge and open to the public.

"Digital readiness of the Swiss education system" on 24 September 2024

The first dialogue event will be held on the morning of 24 September. Educa and NRP 77 are issuing an invitation to this event to discuss the "digital readiness of the Swiss education system." Four research teams will present their results relating to digitalisation in the field of education at this half-day event. You can see the programme and register here. The number of places is limited.

"Digital Transformation: Challenges for Democratic Processes" on October 25, 2024

The second dialogue event on October 25th will shed light on the impact of digital transformation on democratic processes in Switzerland. Following an introduction by Federal Chancellor Viktor Rossi, four research teams will present their findings. Selected practitioners will then respond to the results.
