Overview
With new social media platforms and platform governance models emerging, how can scholars and practitioners work together to shape the future of social media governance in ways that align with liberal values, such as freedom of speech, civil discourse, and democracy?
The Institute for Humane Studies invites faculty, graduate students, and practitioners to explore the current state and future of social media governance.
Join us online for a presentation by Eric Gilbert followed by breakout conversations where you can ask questions and network with other participants.
This event takes place online on October 17, 2024, beginning with opening remarks at 4:30 PM Eastern Time and concluding with breakout discussions from 5:00 to 6:00 PM.
Please come prepared to discuss your current research and share ideas for future academic research or public-facing work, such as op-eds, on the future of social media governance.
If you have research interests in this area, we encourage you to apply for this opportunity.
