Democracy by Design: A look at the first half of this "Year of Democracy"
2024-06-13 , Room D - Water Studio

This session will be a reflection on the June 2024 EU Parliamentary elections, how Big Tech is meeting the moment, and discussion of what we’ve learned in the first half of this unprecedented year of global elections. Amidst rapid advancement and adaptation of generative AI, what changes are we seeing to how voters engage with electoral messages online? Looking ahead, what demands should we make of the platforms? How can civil society drive forward pro-social design to support democratic integrity with even more elections to come in the second half of the year? Join researchers, advocates and technologists to discuss how Big Tech can be designed with democracy in mind.
