Abstract

A conceptual educative program is focused on the global digitization consequences for most important areas of human life including education, professional activities, family, mental health and social communities. Systematic efforts are needed to recognize, minimize and, when possible, prevent societal risks accompanying the development and implementation of emerging technological innovations.

A proposed approach is mainly focused on life activities that are grounded more heavily on societal, rather than economical, industrial or geopolitical nature of human society. Ethical or moral dilemmas serve as a focal point of building both a conceptual foundation, as well as practical implications of risk studies as they relate to digital transformations.
