The Centre for Digital Trust and Society (CDTS) is excited to present the CDTS Seed Corn Showcase. This event celebrates the groundbreaking achievements of the four research projects funded in our 2022-2023 Seed Corn Funding.
What is the CDTS Seed Corn Funding?
Each year, CDTS awards funding to cutting-edge research proposals that explore critical questions at the intersection of digital trust and society. The Seed Corn program helps nurture promising ideas, fostering the next generation of digital trust research through small research projects, scoping reviews and pilot studies, workshops, symposia, and research seminars/ presentations, or staff exchanges and other collaborative relationship development. Join us at this event to see how you can get involved and read about the successes and learnings from the previous funded projects.
What to expect at the Showcase:
- Dive into the learnings and successes of the four funded projects.
