Centre Responsible Digitality (ZEVEDI)

Approaches

The core of the centre’s activities are ZEVEDI project groups. These interdisciplinary, integrative, self-governing groups are open to scientists of related fields from all Hessian universities. ZEVEDI ad hoc projects provide the framework for short-term research activities as well as advisory services for business and politics. ZEVEDI positions itself on a national and international level as a strong research partner in externally funded projects. ZEVEDI is also an important initiator and partner in dialogue with politics, society and business: the network creates discourse spaces and communicates to a broad public.
