In today’s digital landscape, the ability to withstand and adapt to technological, legal, and sociopolitical disruptions is essential. That’s why we at the Chair of Sustainability and Innovation in Digital Ecosystems are organising a Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) on Digital Resilience in partnership with Vrije Universiteit AmsterdamCopenhagen Business School and Pavol Jozef Šafárik University.

Learning Targets:

  • Fundamentals of digital resilience
  • Individual digital resilience
  • Private Sector/Business Digital Resilience
  • Public Sector/Institutional Digital Resilience

Upon successful completion, students will be able to:

  • Understand and analyse socio-political, technological, and legal dimensions of digital resilience.
  • Gain insights into best practices and concrete examples of digital resilience, drawing on both technological and legal perspectives.
  • Apply digital resilience concepts at individual, organisational, and institutional levels.
  • Develop innovative solutions for digital disruptions using entrepreneurial, civic, and analytical approaches.
  • Collaborate effectively in international, interdisciplinary teams.
  • Reflect critically on their learning process and teamwork experience.
This BIP is open to all students from Aurora universities. It follows an integrated blended-learning format that combines independent online preparation, an intensive project-focused week on site, and a concluding virtual reflection phase. The digital phase will begin on 20 April 2026. The in-person phase will begin on 18 May 2026 and conclude on 22 May 2026. Please register here!
