Are you trying to create a different and more just future? Then give this basic question a second thought: How is your future scenario different from today’s status quo? 🔮🤔 Because creating those futures without reproducing similar discriminatory patterns we want to change can be challenging. This is evident in the numerous debates about discrimination issues in many new technologies, framed as “the future” or tech policy regulations (e.g. see our last post). Moreover, each of us brings along our own (unconscious) biases, like class or gender when thinking about futures. And these are even more difficult to tackle. But how can we uncover our biases and status quo thinking? How can we create more just futures? We have been working on these questions with our partners and allies. ➡️ The result? “Critiquing Futures”, a set of reflective questions that aim to support practitioners and others in critically interrogating futures and detecting biases and status quo thinking. ✊🏽 Examine your future idea from a perspective of power:  How do people affected by your scenario shape this common future? How is power distributed and exercised in your scenario? 🫱🏾🫲🏻 Actively question inclusivity: For whom is your future scenario built, and for whom is it not built? Is that what you intended? 🕊️ Unpack the underlining values:  What assumptions and values underpin your future scenario? Are these the assumptions and values you intended to use? If you need more inspiration for how to critically examine future ideas, take a look at the full set of questions in our blog post 👇🏽👇🏽

Diversity is an essential component of research and academia. Universities must prioritize creating an inclusive environment to remove systemic barriers and accelerate diversity across the faculty and student populations. To achieve this, universities must change their organizational culture and prioritize providing equal opportunities to all. Data elucidates the current state of diversity (or lack thereof) and affords universities an evidence-based approach to policy and interventions and the ability to measure progress against goals. #diversityinresearch #inclusion #academia

“We can do anything.” 🏆 How women in data science are enabling sustainability. https://lnkd.in/gQwkmy_8 During live coverage of #WiDS2024, #theCUBE hears from Radhika Shah, chair of the Innovation Advisory Group and fellow of the Center for Human Rights and International Justice at Stanford University, on the collaborative efforts to tap tech for sustainable development. “Digital innovation and data science enable us to actually collaborate,” Shah says. “From wherever we are, whichever corner of the world, we dig in there a little bit more.” Such collaborations allow for better participatory decision making, according to Shah. The ability to allow for every voice to be factored can drive efficient micro decisions within an organization or even a city. “The deliberation platform is very powerful. It enables us to debate things with – even if you’re polarized in views – listen to each other, come together, and the technology makes sure everyone gets a voice,” Shah says. 🤩 Join us now at Stanford University for live coverage of the Women in Data Science conference, International Women’s Day 2024! https://lnkd.in/gQwkmy_8 #WomenInTech #UseCases #BigData #EnterpriseTechNews Savannah Peterson Women in Data Science (WiDS) Worldwide
