CIEL.network’s main aim is to serve as a platform for [investigation, planning, prototyping and building] the future and, as part of our range of objectives, we plan to provide frameworks to address both the opportunities for developing new technologies and their uses but also to discuss its impacts, both positive and negative, on people, institutions, organizations and society.

CIEL.network will gather diverse constituencies, host events, do research, create policy frameworks and develop demonstration projects, connecting and creating a networked environment for engineers, researchers, entrepreneurs, activists, policy creators, journalists, geeks, media, and public intellectuals to debate and engage one another on the key issues in our agenda. We imagine that one of the likely effects of our actions will be to educate people and society in things we think, discuss and do.
