Contemporary society is characterised by the widespread uptake and rapid integration of technologies aiming to improve the capacity and productivity through the restoration or extension of human physical, intellectual and social capabilities. In this context, digital wellbeing has emerged as a novel concept that gives expression to the delicate balance between benefits and drawbacks that people experience in an ever increasing digital world.
The Internation workshop Wellbeing in the Digital Era aims to investigate how our conceptual understanding of well-being has been altered by emerging technologies.
Relevant topics include but are not limited to:
How do we define wellbeing within the evolving ecosystems of the digital era?
How does digital transformation impact humans, non-humans, and the environment?
Do we have the theoretical frameworks and technological tools to ensure wellbeing for all?
What role do regulation and ethics play in shaping digital transformation?
