Master class and GLOW walk - CANCELLED

This master class will unfortunately not take place. We are looking at a suitable date in 2025.

Master class Moral Design & Technology: how do we get citizens' voices into new technology?

In this master class, you will learn why asking ethical questions about technology is crucial, and why we often only ask these questions after the fact. Lecturer Bart Wernaart will give you insight into how technology sometimes 'happens to us' and why this needs to change.

You will learn how we can develop technology together by taking fundamentally different approaches in technology policy, product design and the use of technology. Bart will provide you with concrete examples and strategies to implement these changes. At the end of the master class, you will have a clear picture of the steps needed to develop and deploy technology responsibly and inclusively.

Bart Wernaart is lecturer in Moral Design Strategy at Fontys University of Applied Sciences. He is also a member of the ethics committee Brainport Smart District and the Municipality of Eindhoven. In 2022, he won the first Melanie Peters Prize, awarded by the Rathenau Institute. He publishes nationally and internationally on issues at the intersection of ethics, technology and human rights.
