Waag operates at the intersection of science, technology and the arts. Their work focuses on emergent technologies as instruments of social change, and is guided by the values of fairness, openness and inclusivity. On 1 December 2019 Waag officially exists for 25 years, which they will celebrate starting 30 November from 3pm until 3am. The year 2019 will be dominated by 25 years of the Digital City in Amsterdam (since January 15, 1994) and 25 years of Waag (since December 1, 1994). The programme includes a talk by NIAS Director Jan Willem Duyvendak.
