Forum Bildung Digitalisierung

The Forum Bildung Digitalisierung is a non-profit organization that advocates for systemic changes and a sustainable digital transformation in the education sector. At the center of the Forum's work are the potentials of digital media for school and teaching development.

• Projects and Publications: The Forum identifies success factors for digital change in schools and develops innovative, practical solutions in close collaboration with member foundations and other stakeholders in the education sector[2][4].
• Events: Regular conferences, such as "Dimension Digitalisierung" and the "Governance Forum BD", serve as a platform for exchange and coordination between school practice, educational administration, and political decision-makers. These events promote dialogue and the development of solutions for the digital transformation in the school system[3][4].
• Navigator Education Digitalization: A systematic overview of the state of digital transformation in the school education sector in Germany, highlighting knowledge and implementation deficits[4].

The mission of the Forum is to advance digital transformation in the education sector by creating clearly defined framework conditions and leeway for school leaders and school authorities. It aims to promote digital competencies among students, teachers, and school leaders and to establish a culture of digitality in the school system. The Forum's work is based on the principle of partnership dialogue and co-creation of solutions with key stakeholders in the education sector[2].

The Forum Bildung Digitalisierung pursues several sustainable goals:

• Strengthening Digital Competencies: Through further education and qualification, it should be ensured that students, teachers, and school leaders can navigate the digital world confidently[2].
• Equity and Participation: The digital transformation should help to address educational challenges and strengthen educational equity[2].
• Systemic Changes: The Forum works on the systemic transformation of the school system to ensure a future-proof and competitive education[2][3].

The Forum is supported by ten major German foundations, including Deutsche Telekom Stiftung, Bertelsmann Stiftung, Dieter Schwarz Stiftung, and others. These partnerships enable the Forum to develop and implement comprehensive and effective initiatives[2].
