Digital Futures Gathering

Radical, collaborative spaces for imagining futures rooted in justice, care, and collective power.

The Digital Futures Gathering is an event series by SUPERRR that creates space for collective imagination around just and intersectional feminist digital futures. Bringing together civil society organisations, activists, researchers, and policy experts, the gatherings move beyond damage control of digital harm, exploring how power, technology, and structural inequality shape our digital lives .

Digital Futures Gathering 2025

In October 2025 over 55 policy experts, frontline workers, activists and researchers from all over Europe working on gender-based violence, digital rights, and social justice gathered in Berlin. Over two days, the participants came together to address the issues, challenges, and tensions of digital violence, with a particular focus on intimate partner violence, in order to build trust and strong foundations and to collectively shape and imagine violence-free and just digital futures.

Digital Futures Gathering 2022

Researchers, activists and civil society practitioners met in Berlin for the Digital Futures Gathering. Over the two-day event, participants imagined what just and sustainable digital futures can look like and developed collaborative strategies to work towards them. This website is a repository of the gathering’s documentation. We invite you to browse through the site, get inspired and discover new possibilities. As Gloria Steinem put it, ‘Without leaps of imagination or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.’

WE

WIN

IF/

WHEN

Because we know what our past and present looks like, when thinking about the future we too often imagine what we will lose. It can be hard to imagine what we can win, so we asked participants to complete the following sentence: We will win if/when …

we can dream beyond the existing paradigm

we are free to choose if, how and when to connect

the digital rights community works with & learns from social justice movements

precarised tech workers are able to collectively bargain for their rights, no matter where they live and work

solidarity networks exist between activists in the global south and north

Alexa and Siri become a queer feminist couple

we heal

deciding on a (tech) job won’t be a moral conundrum

we defeat fascism

we are able to articulate alternative visions of the future that are based on hope and solidarity
