AI and data continue to dominate the news in 2024, while the debate about their impact on society is ongoing.

The Knowledge Centre Data & Society offers a platform for AI and privacy specialists, technical experts, opinion leaders, and others who like to write about these topics. This summer, you will have the opportunity to draw attention to a topic yourself, through a guest contribution in our 'Summer Blog' series.

What we are looking for

Are you working on an exciting project? Do you need help with your research? Would you like to share a short opinion or rather a real longread? Do you want to highlight a new initiative? Have you published a book? Are you harbouring a burning annoyance? Then let us know by 1 July 2024! We will then contact you to finalise the details.

Rules of the game:

• We expect your submission to match the interests of our followers and the topics we cover (ethical, legal and social aspects of AI)
• We accept pieces in Dutch and English
• If your proposal is accepted, you keep to the submission date as agreed with us
• We are certainly willing to think 'out of the box', but we are a Knowledge Centre, not a conspiracy outlet- make sure your submission is substantiated!
• We do not publish purely commercial content
• Your writing style is suitable for the web: clear and in paragraphs, with an introduction and a clear structure. Avoid jargon and academic language and use hyperlinks instead of footnotes
• There is no minimum or maximum length - just take into account the average (summer) attention span of your target audience
• You provide at least two illustrations (royalty-free or cleared)
• The full content of the text is published directly on the page, without attachments
• We will distribute and quote your piece on our social media accounts, naming you as the author
  
• We reserve the right to edit the text to make it more readable. We always submit any changes to the original author(s) for approval.
