<p class="MsoNormal">Hello everyone,<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As we all know, ICT *can* play a central role in the transition to sustainable societies, but often makes things worse. Our ICT4S summer school explores systemic interactions between ICT, society, economy & environment. It seems odd to
announce a summer school in these times, but we’re cautiously optimistic about the timeline – late August - and the Lorentz Center hosting this summer school is working on covid contingency plans if necessary.<u></u><u></u></p>
