From December 16th to 17th, Rune Halvorsen, Co-Director of CEDIC, and Jacqueline O’Reilly, a CEDIC associate from the University of Sussex, organized a workshop on digital ecosystems
The workshop focused on the digitalization of work and the welfare state across 15 different countries. It was hosted at the Digital Futures at Work Research Centre (Digit) at the University of Sussex.
The workshop was a follow-up from our early analysis in the EUROSHIP project. In the EUROSHIP project, work-package leader professor Jacqueline O`Reilly started to develop the concept of Digital Ecosystems (EUROSHIP-Working-Paper-No.-23-1.pdf). In this workshop, we discussed papers covering altogether 18 countries to explore how digital ecosystems influence social citizenship.
In EUROSHIP, we started to interrogate the implications of introducing digital technologies to deliver social protection systems and address some of the problems arising from this broader social and economic transformation.
