Introducing the Psycho-Ludic Approach: Exploring play for a viable future!
Margarete Jahrmann, Stefan Glasauer
As part of the Year of Science 2024, we will be discussing the topic of “freedom” at #rp24: at a time when freedoms are coming under pressure in ways that have long been unimaginable, we will be focusing on what constitutes a free digital society, the state of freedom in science and research and how we can ensure the freedom of future generations.
Specifically, the re:publica 24 program will focus on free and low-barrier access to knowledge and information, inclusive digital spaces, free platforms and infrastructures - how can artificial intelligence, for example, be developed as trustworthy as possible and in the interests of our freedom? We also talk about hostility towards science in Germany and with threatened scientists from abroad. Last but not least, we look to the future: how can the freedom of future generations be ensured in the face of challenges such as the climate crisis?
Our thematic focus on freedom is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research as part of the Science Year 2024.
The theme of the Year of Science 2024 is freedom. Because it is of fundamental value and is under threat today in ways that have long been unimaginable. Two upcoming anniversaries underline its importance for Germany: 75 years of the Basic Law and 35 years since the fall of the Berlin Wall.
The Science Year 2024 is therefore focusing on various dimensions of freedom. What exactly is freedom? Are freedom and democracy connected? Where does freedom begin and where does it end? With a wide range of hands-on activities, the Year of Science provides a framework for intergenerational discussions about freedom, its value, its meaning and its limits - with each other and with science. About freedom today, tomorrow and worldwide.
The Year of Science is an initiative of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) together with Wissenschaft im Dialog (WiD).
