re:publica is a festival for the digital society and the largest conference of its kind in Europe. Representatives from academia, politics, companies, NGOs, the media, bloggers and other experts in the digital field give talks, give interviews or organise workshops to familiarise participants with their topics.
The motto of this year's re:publica was "Who cares?". Artificial intelligence and the democratic use of data are becoming increasingly important. Initiatives such as digital street work, care robots and integration work show how individual care work and projects for society as a whole are merging. And now it's up to us: our actions will shape future generations and technologies. Our society, which is geared towards growth and success, must change in the direction of solidarity and civic engagement in order to meet future challenges.
I think it's great that the degree programme includes the opportunity to attend re:publica, one of the most renowned trade fairs on digital society, net culture and journalism in Europe, as part of the course. For me, this is a great contribution to a practice-based university education.

For some of us, re:publica will continue to be a fixed date in the future. The different impressions, professional expertise and the exchange with like-minded people is essential for us "people in the media industry" to build a broad network that can help us both privately and professionally.
There was also plenty of free time: we rounded off the trip with a dinner together with our travelling lecturers Constanze Euler and Robert Pinzolits . Some students even extended their stay in Berlin to explore the most beautiful corners of the German capital on their own.
Some students have summarised their greatest insights from the lectures in short guest reports. Click in now and see the variety and exciting lectures for yourself:
