GIGA’s Digital Transformation Lab (DigiTraL) is funded by the Federal Foreign Office and analyses the political drivers and real-world consequences of the digital transformation taking place around the world. The Global South in particular plays a key role as both an actor in and shaper of this transformation.
In the first phase (2021-2023), the project focused on digital diplomacy, analysing the new opportunities, challenges, and instruments that digital transformation offers for German foreign policy. The second phase (2024-2025) explores the transformative potential of digitalisation, examining how it can serve as a catalyst for enhanced cooperation with global partners. Through case studies, we highlight practical opportunities for collaboration with countries in the Global South in this era of rapid digital transformation.
Central questions include:
Where do individual countries and regions in the Global South stand with regards to digitalisation? What are are the key points of contact for (tech) partnerships with Germany? Where are new developments emerging, such as digital disinformation threats, responses and interventions in the Global South? What cooperative relationships already exist in the field of digitalisation in the Global South? How can the German government and other actors in Germany best respond?
