The Faculty of Law and Administration of Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń (Poland) invites scholars, researchers, legal experts, and practitioners to submit papers for an international online conference dedicated to the multidimensional challenges and opportunities of digital voting.

This conference is a part of the DIGIVOTE Project, funded under the Citizens, Equality, Rights and Values (CERV) led by EMUNI University (Slovenia). The project aims to strengthen democratic participation and public trust in digital electoral processes across the EU. It unites seven partner institutions from Slovenia, Bulgaria, Estonia, Greece, Italy, Germany, and Poland.

About the Conference

Against the background of growing geopolitical tensions, cybersecurity threats, foreign interference, and disinformation, the digitalization of electoral processes raises increasingly complex questions about security, democratic resilience, and public trust. The conference will therefore explore not only the opportunities offered by digital voting, but also the conditions and safeguards necessary for its responsible development in Europe. It will provide a forum for interdisciplinary scholarly and professional dialogue, drawing on comparative research conducted across partner countries, citizen consultation results, and survey data gathered within the project.

We cordially invite scholars, researchers, practitioners and policy makers to convene online and share insights, research findings, and practical experiences regarding the future of elections in the digital age.
