Together, the projects form a multifaceted mosaic of digital innovations that not only increases the visibility of the DIZH, but also strengthens the networking of stakeholders and dialogue with the public – the basis for a responsible digital future. The projects, from the hackathon to the MasterClass to the comedy show, focus on new communication formats. At the same time, they promote dialogue and knowledge transfer between society, culture, politics, administration and business on relevant digital transformation topics.

Financial support for these projects is provided via the DIZH special loan with a maximum funding amount of CHF 50,000 per project and the equal contribution of matching funds by the universities. The maximum duration is 18 months.

ZHAW researchers are involved, in a leading or supporting role, in six of the ten funded projects. You will find an overview of all projects on the DIZH website.
