Description

How can we navigate the paradoxes of big data? Data misrecognition makes people invisible and contributes to discrimination, harm, and social inequality. Data recognition totally captures people in technological systems that trespass privacy and can contribute to political and economic exploitation. This webinar explores issues of ethics, justice, and equality in the sea of big data: How are changes in the workforce, and in the workplace of big data, lived and experienced by a racially diverse and gendered workforce? Can we develop ethical rules for big data? And can we at all address the "bias in/bias out" phenomenon in data systems that strengthens existing social inequalities of race and gender? This webinar is part of the Gender and (in)security event series.
