Barely two months into the fall semester and life is looking somewhat normal in the buildings of ITU at Amager, where students meet with supervisors, lectures draw crowds to the auditoriums, and researchers gather regularly to spar with each other.
At the Center for Digital Welfare (CDW), we are well underway with launching postponed activities; we have invited members for expeditions, working group meetings, symposiums, and our brand-new series of public talks, the Distinguished Speakers Series – Lectures in Digital Welfare, which will be announced via our
LinkedIn very soon.
The Center is also expanding steadily and since our last newsletter, we have welcomed a line of fresh faces. The working group Sustainable Digitalization has formed an interdisciplinary team of interesting research profiles from ITU’s three institutes – Business IT, Computer Science and Digital Design – and furthermore,
Telepsykiatrisk Center from Region Syddanmark (the Region of Southern Denmark),
DaneAge Association, and
Implement Consulting Group have joined as our newest members.
As we congratulate Research Assistant
Lara Reime on her new Ph.D. and thank her for all her good work, she is now replaced by
Laura Na Blankholm, who is a visual anthropologist and freelance journalist and brings a lot of know-how to the team. Last, but not least, we have the pleasure of welcoming a new member to the CDW advisory board,
Cathrine Hasse, who is a Professor of Educational Science at Aarhus University with a focus on learning processes and technological artifacts. Having her perspectives will undoubtedly be of great benefit to the center’s journey.
We are happy to have all newcomers on board and wish you a good read.
Greetings from,
Laura Juncker,
Strategic Project Manager
