The association is committed to improving the conditions for equal social participation in the digital knowledge society. These conditions are to be improved by: strengthening the free and unhindered access of all to all non-particularly sensitive data, information and knowledge; promoting transparency, self-determination, sustainability and cooperation; providing exchange and networking platforms for ideas from the population and interdisciplinary collaborations for the purpose of community-oriented innovation; supporting open and non-profit pilot projects of an interdisciplinary nature; and providing information on the opportunities and risks of digitalization and enabling all population groups to understand and handle data independently and responsibly.
