Whether you see this crisis as a catastrophe or an opportunity, it forces us to re-evaluate our current world model and think harder and deeper than ever about the kind of world we want to live and work in once the crisis is over.Smart Cities innovation Space, a student based program at the Eindhoven University of Technology, is organizing a series of online seminars about smart cities in the post-corona world. In these seminars we explore the role energy, transportation, food and health care play in smart cities, embedded in an ethical framework that reflects our changing value system.Our first seminar focuses on the ethical framework. The corona crisis has changed many people’s worldview. Do we want society to continue at the same fast pace or do we slow down and spend more time on our social relations and our connection to nature? How can technology serve these needs? We talk about changing world views, barriers to growth, the privacy issue how technology can adapt.The seminars are targeted towards professionals in the business world, government bodies, and students and staff at knowledge institutes.
