Not-Equal Webinar: Making Data Work for Social Justice
Not all data is made equal. As data is increasingly mobilized in the service of governments and corporations, their unequal effects on both individuals and groups become increasingly difficult for data scientists. We ask data science by whom? Data science for whom? Data science with whose interests in mind?
Join us this evening and hear from Catherine D’Ignazio (MIT) who will help us consider how feminist thinking can be operationalized to enact more just data practices, and Giselle Cory who will talk about the role data science has in the social sector.
This webinar took place on Wednesday 8th June, 2021
Speakers:
Prof Catherine D’Ignazio, MIT – Data Feminism
Giselle Cory, DataKind UK – What role does data science have in the social sector?
Chair: Clara Crivellaro , Newcastle University
