Responsible Digital, the leitmotif of Digital Campus Lyon in 2020… To be continued in 2021!

At the start of the 2020 academic year, Digital Campus Lyon fully committed alongside its students and partners to taking action and raising awareness around “Responsible Digital”. Whether through conferences, real-world projects, inspiring encounters, or hackathons, DC Lyon multiplied its initiatives!

Digital Campus's mission is to train Digital Change Makers. Students are taught web tools and project management, but they are also invited throughout their programme to act in favour of a responsible digital world. The Responsible Digital thread is woven through inspiring encounters, real-world impact projects, and volunteering initiatives, engaging students to help build a better, more responsible digital world.

The 2020 academic year at Digital Campus Lyon was truly shaped by the spirit of Responsible Digital — To be continued in 2021!
