GovTech x Conference on Democracy COD: Voice, Creativity, and the Power of Self-Expression is in March! As you can imagine, our course topics dovetail nicely with both COD’s general focus on democracy and its specific themes this year. Technology (and its surrounding political, social, and cultural impacts) continues to play an integral role in shaping and influencing democracy and democratic ideas (both at home in the US and abroad). Your assignment: design, organize, and lead a 60-minute COD session in which you investigate/engage with a specific topic and the ways that it intertwines with both democracy and the theme: Voice, Creativity, and the Power of Self-Expression. Your workshop will be highly interactive: the max time for your group to speak is 20 minutes and the rest will be for your attendees to engage. We want to encourage you to think creatively beyond the Agree/Disagree discussion. After completing your reading you should think about what your attendees will need in order to engage with this topic. Is this an issue in which attendees will need a lot of context before jumping in? Is this an issue that sparks debate? Is this a complicated topic that would benefit from some visuals to show how it works? Or a collection of readings to investigate in groups? Will your attendees need to hear some human experiences to understand the impact? Is this something that your attendees may already be familiar with and could mine their own digital experience to participate? Is there a direct action step that your group can engage in after learning about this topic? Topic Library: Automated decision making (social welfare, justice) Tech industry and local politics (CA Forever, SF city politics) Digital redlining and internet access (locally) Local government portals and citizen access Preserving voice and culture on the internet (Internet Archives) Digital Colonialism: Labor and Data Exploitation AI and energy consumption AI and foreign policy, chip-making President Trump, Technology Policy, and Politics Crypto and Blockchain and NFTs Meme culture and political activism
