Digital data offer a world of possibilities for civil society to achieve greater impact. Digital resources also present a new set of responsibilities and challenges for civil society. The Digital Civil Society Lab at the Stanford Center on Philanthropy and Civil Society is exploring the implications of the digital age for global civil society. We are applying that knowledge to build a universal framework for civil society to use digital resources safely, ethically and effectively. This one-day event will explore best practices and pressing questions about the future of digital civil society
and democracy – in New York City and around the world. Through the Digital Impact World Tour the Lab is learning directly from leaders of nonprofits and foundations, individual funders, and advocacy groups about how they are using digital resources in line with civil society’s unique values.
