Building on its work on privacy, civil rights, and social justice, the New America Foundation’s Open Technology Institute will host a research convening focused on data and discrimination.
The event – a preconference of the International Communication Association’s annual meeting – will take place in less than two months. It comes at a time when policymakers, civil society advocates, technologists, and researchers in the United States and beyond have begun thinking about justice, fairness, and equity in the context of big data.
The conference schedule is as follows http://oti.newamerica.net/blogposts/2014/oti_convenes_researchers_to_discuss_big_data_and_discrimination-107158
