Public values

Within education and research, we work together to create a secure digital environment. How do we safeguard autonomy, justice and humanity in a world of increasing digitalisation and vendor dependence? Public values guide us and help us make the right decisions. In what way are these values intertwined with SURF's activities?

Publieke Waarden

Onderwijs- en onderzoeksinstellingen werken hard om studenten en medewerkers een goede en veilige digitale omgeving te bieden. Daarbij worden we geconfronteerd met dilemma’s: hoe borgen we waarden als rechtvaardigheid, autonomie en menselijkheid, terwijl aan de andere kant de afhankelijkheid van dominante commerciële partijen groeit? De community publieke waarden gaat over het samen verkennen van deze dilemma’s, het vormen van visie en het delen van praktische tools en hulpmiddelen.
