Against the backdrop of rising global inequalities, misinformation, and right-wing authoritarianism, this presentation takes a critical decolonial lens to discuss the role of data as a tool for social justice. We consider 3A’s – Authenticity, Agency, and Advocacy – in how data are conceptualized, accessed, evaluated, and shared. We apply these principles to our own project and positionality to brainstorm more ethical ways of approaching data. Presented by Srivi Ramasubramanian, PhD, Newhouse Professor & Endowed Chair. Refreshments will be provided.
