Digital Humanism (DigHum) is an interdisciplinary initiative integrating humanities, social, and technical sciences. It aims to describe, to analyse and, above all, to influence the complex interplay between IT and humanity for a society that fully respects universal human rights. Pursuing these goals, topics at the summer school include:
* participation and democracy;
* digital politics and sovereignty;
* the role of platforms in the economy;
* privacy;
* AI and ethics;
* fair systems.

The summer school welcomes PhD students from engineering, social sciences and humanities as well as interested people from industry, institutions and civil society. Leading scientists from the different fields involved will introduce the topics. A typical course is broad enough to provide a general introduction to the chosen topic, while covering the most relevant contributions in depth. In addition, there is ample time for discussions and presentations of participants' projects.

These topics will be introduced by internationally renowned experts, including Franco Accordino (European Commission), Anna Bon (VU Amsterdam), Robin Burke (University of Colorado Boulder), Milad Doueihi (Paris-Sorbonne University), Monika Lanzenberger (European Commission), Thomas Lohninger (epicenter.works), Stavros Makris (University of Glasgow), George Metakides (Digital Enlightenment Forum), Jürgen Pfeffer (TU München), Ute Schmid (University of Bamberg), Maria Soledad Pera (TU Delft), and Hannes Werthner (TU Wien).

The summer school is organised by the Center for Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (CAIML) at TU Wien, the Digital Enlightenment Forum, and the Digital Humanism Initiative.
