The different stories we tell about data has implications on how we use data, and consequently paves the path for how we would tend to regulate it.

In this session, Primavera de Filippi shares a range of different frameworks for data governance, and proposes to rely on the analogy of data as “infrastructure” as a more effective conceptual framework for the sharing of data in the digital economy.

Catherine d’Ignazio will furthermore inspire to find alternative ways to think about data, by sharing insights from the feminist readings on data.

How could rethinking data as something that elevates emotion and embodiment support us in creating more empowering data science practices?
