For a resilient, inclusive and democratic society.

Learn more about European Digital Humanism.

European Digital Humanism

The European Digital Humanism Initiative (EUDHIT) supports strengthening societies through Digital Humanism, shaping technology for democracy and inclusion and believes in human values at the core of digital futures.

It is funded by the European Union.

Building resilient societies

Technology profoundly shapes the world we live in, and the stakes are high.

Digital Humanism offers a path to ensure that innovation in Europe strengthens human dignity, freedom, and democracy. It’s not about resisting progress—it’s about steering it in a direction that puts people first.

Digital Humanism in Europe

The European Digital Humanism Initiative (EUDHIT) supports strengthening societies through Digital Humanism, shaping technology for democracy and inclusion and believes in human values at the core of digital futures.

EUDHIT, a two-and-a-half-year Horizon Europe-funded project with 11 partners, connects researchers with policymakers, industry, and civil society to strengthen Europe’s capacity to shape digital transformation in line with democratic values – ensuring technology truly serves people and society.

Our working areas

The human

We explore how digitalisation transforms work and education, reshapes our understanding of identity and dignity and raises urgent questions of privacy and algorithmic control.

Our society

We address how surveillance, disinformation, and online discourse affect freedom of speech and human rights, and how ethical frameworks can strenghten resilience.

The economy

We analyse platform economies and the power and dominance of technology monopolies, focusing on consumer rights and the role of regulation in ensuring fair competition.

The state

In an age of accelerating technological change, we examine how digital transformation challenges democracy, sovereignty, and geopolitics, and what political frameworks are needed to safeguard democratic governance.
