Wil je weten hoe verschillende politieke partijen in hun #verkiezingsprogramma's denken over deze (en meer!) aspecten van wetenschap en #wetenschapsbeleid? Check het The Young Academy Dashboard Verkiezingen 2025 (dejongeakademie.nl/nieuws/31328...)

4. staan we pal voor academische vrijheid?

5. zien we hoe wetenschap nationaal én internationaal tegelijk kan zijn?

2. investeren we in het hele huis van de wetenschap, d.w.z. de volle breedte van de wetenschap, inclusief de sociale en geesteswetenschappen?

3. zien we het belang van jonge onderzoekers voor de levensvatbaarheid van de wetenschap, het risico van "wetenschapsvergrijzing", en gaan we daar wat voor en aan doen?

Vandaag in Trouw: wat er op het spel staat voor de wetenschap de aankomende verkiezingen

I'm looking for recommendations for accessible podcasts, videos etc. for a 1st-yr course on digitalisation and politics.

Suggestions? E.g. on how democracy functions and why it matters, how digitalisation reshapes elections, democratic backsliding in Europe...

Meta’s decision to ban ads about politics, elections, and social issues on their platforms like Facebook and Instagram in the EU is now implemented.

This is the new policy. Any ad about fx elections, civil rights, economy, health, climate, immigration, or foreign policy is now (presumably) banned.

Quite a claim from Pavel Durov

NEW: UK asked Apple to backdoor iCloud encryption.

Backdoors create a massive target for hackers & criminal groups.

Dictators will inevitably demand that Apple do the same for them. 1/

How did Japan’s position of political, economic, and technological power impact the rise of East–West trade in Europe during the long 1970s?

Read Aleksandra Komornicka's new article demonstrating how Japan’s rise served as a model for opening socialist economies. #Poland #historysky #IPEsky #IRsky

Ok then... so the military elite had to come back to see where their next "theater of war" will be... America's cities!

Trump declares war on Americans: "Our history is filled with military heroes who took on all enemies foreign and domestic. That's what the oath says -- foreign and domestic. Well we also have domestic."

Had a blast synergising @deconspirator.bsky.social and ARM project with @mariellew.bsky.social at the @clingendael.bsky.social REKA conference. Discussed current approaches to #FIMI and the challenges European democracies face. Despite our happy faces, we were not always optimistic...

Russian authorities have restricted calls on WhatsApp and Telegram, two of the most widely used messengers in the country.

The two platforms disputed the move, with WhatsApp calling it an effort to "violate people’s right to secure communication."

🤯 Approximate movement of missiles and drones during the night attack on Ukraine…

⚡️At least 5 killed, 39 injured in Russian attacks against Ukraine over past day.

Ukraine endured the largest aerial attack since the start of Russia's full-scale war, with at least 5 civilians killed and 39 injured across multiple regions over the past 24 hours, Ukrainian officials said on July 9.

❗️For the second night in a row, Ukraine is yet again under a massive russian drone attack.

⚡️UPDATE: Russia's mass missile and drone strike on Kyiv injures at least 23.

The attack damaged apartment buildings, businesses, a school, a medical facility, railway lines, and other civilian infrastructure in multiple districts. Fires blazed across the city, making the air dangerous to breathe.
