About this Event
*German version below
How can we help Humans become smarter in a world where the machine is becoming rapidly smarter?
This will be our 32nd Brave Conversations event and our 3rd in Germany.
Our first ever Brave Conversations was held in Canberra, Australia, in 2017. Since that time the world has changed, but the conversation remains the same!
We'll explore:- What is the definition of a human in the Age of the Smart Machine?
- What is the role of a human in this Age of the Smart Machine?
- How do we retain our humanity whilst harnessing the power of Smart Machines to improve life for all on Planet Earth?
We will be guided in our conversations by the use of Mark Moore’s Strategic Triangle asking:
- What Can We Do?
- What Should We Do?
- What May We Do?
About Brave Conversations:
At Brave Conversations, our purpose is to invite everyone -no matter their background, skills, or expertise- to pause and reflect on the deep entanglement between people, our societies, and the technologies we create.
We want to encourage participants to think critically about the choices we make every day: how we live our lives, how we engage in the economy, and how we act as digital citizens exercising our rights. True empowerment comes when we strip away the mystery around data and information, and begin to see how they shape even the smallest decisions that, collectively, build our shared future. Each of us plays a role in shaping what comes next, and never before have we had such power to influence the changes unfolding around us.
But to do this well, we need space: space for honest debate, respectful curiosity, and playful exploration. Brave Conversations is that space -a place where we can ask hard questions, wrestle with uncomfortable truths, and learn from each other as we navigate this complex age together.
How it works
The best way to learn is through experience and the act of playing with ideas, to imagine, to challenge, and to be creative. The things that humans do best.

„Brave Conversations“ lädt dazu ein, innezuhalten und über die tiefe Verflechtung zwischen Menschen, unseren Gesellschaften und den von uns geschaffenen Technologien nachzudenken. Wir möchten die Teilnehmenden dazu ermutigen, kritisch über die Entscheidungen nachzudenken, die wir jeden Tag treffen: wie wir unser Leben gestalten, wie wir uns in die Wirtschaft einbringen und wie wir unsere Rechte ausüben.
Jede Entscheidung beginnt auf persönlicher Ebene – von dort aus breiten sie sich aus: auf Familien, Gemeinschaften, Gesellschaften und Nationen. Jeder von uns spielt eine Rolle dabei, die Zukunft zu gestalten, und noch nie zuvor hatten wir so vielfältige Möglichkeiten, die Veränderungen um uns herum zu beeinflussen.
Brave Conversations bietet den Raum für ehrliche Debatten, respektvolle Neugier und spielerisches Erkunden.
