Centre for Digital Trust and Society Seed Corn Showcase

The Centre for Digital Trust and Society (CDTS) invites you to the CDTS Seed Corn Showcase, a celebration of pioneering research in digital trust. This event highlights the groundbreaking achievements of five research projects funded in 2023-2024 through CDTS’s Seed Corn Funding. While cybersecurity is part of the scope, the Centre’s vision extends beyond to address broader themes, such as trustworthiness, distrust, and resilience in digital contexts.

The concept of “trust” has varied interpretations across technical and social sciences, with “trustworthiness” meaning different things to computer scientists, engineers, psychologists, and philosophers. This diversity enriches the field, creating unique opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration.
