Data Justice Week

University of Edinburgh

20-24 May 2019

 

Bringing colleagues and students from across the University and beyond, Data Justice Week explores concepts associated with 'justice' and 'ethics' in the context of big data, algorithms and artificial intelligence (AI). A key question is whether more established ethical frameworks can fully account for the complex, often unpredictable, justice issues arising once data-intensive technologies are deployed in social contexts.
