Tech and Society Week – Behind the Scenes: Understanding Equity and Representation in Government Data hosted by MDI and the Beeck Center

Panel Abstract: If data is not collected, shared, or used with equity in mind, it can worsen structural inequities in important policy-making and delivery of public services. How might we understand the role of governments and individuals to address equity as we consider data collection, usage and accessibility? Join the panel of experts to discuss how we responsibly use data for data-driven decision making.

This event is hosted in partnership with the Beeck Center for Social Impact + Innovation and the Massive Data Institute at the McCourt School of Public Policy. This event is happening during Tech & Society Week, which is a week of events across campus, exploring various issues at the nexus of technology and society.

This event is open to the public. RSVP required.
