In our increasingly interconnected and online world, data touches nearly everything we do. It shapes policy decisions, it determines what posts we see on our social media, and it drives the development of artificial intelligence.
But what happens when not everyone is reflected in this data?
Join this free online workshop to find out what inclusive data practices look like, and why they’re important. You’ll learn what happens when not everyone is reflected in the data we gather and discover how inclusive data can lead to more inclusive decision making.
You’ll learn:
- What ‘inclusive data’ actually means, and why it matters
- How to develop more inclusive data practices in your organisation
- What happens when data fails to include everyone
Who should watch:
This workshop is for anyone who wants to learn more about inclusive data practices, whether or not you work directly with data yourself.
