The event “The Civic Toolkit: Digital Literacy in the Era of AI” will take place on April 17, 2026, from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM at the Wasserturm, EUREF-Campus 18, 10829 Berlin. It focuses on how digital literacy can be strengthened and democratic systems made more resilient in the face of challenges such as AI-driven misinformation, polarization, and declining trust in institutions.
At its core, the event explores the dual role of artificial intelligence in democracy—as both a risk, potentially amplifying bias and disinformation, and an opportunity to enhance transparency, participation, and citizen engagement. It brings together citizens, educators, technologists, community leaders, and policymakers to rethink how innovation can support democratic values.
The program combines expert talks with interactive sessions, enabling participants to build practical skills and critical understanding for navigating today’s digital information landscape. The initiative is designed as a non-partisan platform for dialogue, reflection, and collaborative problem-solving at the intersection of technology and civic life.
