Alireza Akhlaghi had plenty of time inside the famed Sheikh Lotfollah Mosque in Iran to capture the photo that leads this blog post. Why? He walked in at exactly noon, just as the building was about to close down for two hours. He was able to convince the mosque’s guards to let him inside anyway, even though they told him that they’d have to lock him inside until the building re-opened. “I was all by myself and taking photos,” he wrote.

From the scientific and industrial revolution to the present day, food – an essential element of life – has been progressively transformed into a private, transnational, mono-dimensional commodity of mass consumption for a global market. But over the last decade there has been an increased recognition that this can be challenged and reconceptualized if food is regarded and enacted as a commons.

The approach of the IGF is simple: anyone who has a stake in the future of the Internet can go and be heard. It was founded and operates on the principles of being bottom-up, transparent, and inclusive.

New technologies like AI open up a lot of chances but also bear many risks. Couldn’t we just learn how to deal with this from science-fiction films having already played through the major issues of AI? Unfortunately not. Rather than give advice, science-fiction distracts from the currently relevant ethical and legal challenges of AI and the socio-political implications.

1/3 aller Studierenden in NRW beenden ihr Studium vorzeitig. Ein noch größerer Teil zweifelt im Studienverlauf. Zweifel gehört zu fast jeder getroffenen Entscheidung und kann sowohl quälend als auch ein guter Ratgeber sein, etwas oder vieles anders zu machen. Die HHU möchte Studienzweifler künftig noch besser unterstützen und lädt zu einem BarCamp ein. Teilnehmen kann jeder, der sich für das Thema Zweifel am Studium, den Umgang damit und Unterstützungsangebote interessiert und sich vorab angemeldet hat. 

Die Bildergalerie "HHU-Nostalgia" stellt interessante Archiv-Motive vor und wird kontinuierlich ausgebaut und ergänzt: Viel Spaß!
