Selected engagements and public studies show the substance, range and institutional settings of DigiData’s work. Forthcoming work is labelled clearly; private Council of Europe AI-in-education materials are not published here.
The examples distinguish commissioned studies, ongoing advisory work, public submissions, personal-capacity contributions and research partnerships. The wording avoids implying that every organisation shown is a conventional fee-paying client or endorses DigiData.

“The strongest argument is rarely the loudest position. It is the one that makes its assumptions visible, survives the hard objection and still leaves a workable route forward.”DigiData working principle
