Blue Table Webinars 2025 - A New Climate for Humanity: Living Together in the Digital Era
Who are we as humans, and how do we connect with each other? These questions feel more important than ever as rapid new technological developments, like AI, blur the line between real and fake. They challenge us to rethink what it means to exist. While individual and collective lives evolve, some things have always stayed constant - at least, that’s what history has shown. But perhaps, living together on this planet, with all its uncertainties and possibilities, will need a fresh perspective moving forward.
This series of webinars invites to explore in a deep and accessible manner diverse aspects of a topic that affects everyone:

What are the Blue Table Webinars?
The hour-long webinars, usually taking place one Wednesday afternoon (Central European Time) per month, take the format of panel discussions with each panelist giving a short presentation on the topic and answering questions.
Experts from all over the world - including members of the Globethics network and Pool of Experts - spanning multiple disciplines and backgrounds, contribute to the discussions, offering unique perspectives grounded in lived experiences.

The 2024 series shed light on how we can understand the future in its different and plural articulations.
