S7E3: How to Use Data as a Tool of Empowerment // Sarah Williams

In our interview with Sarah, we’ll be discussing if we can fully remove biases from data sets, and how we can decolonise data structures. Sarah herself has worked on multiple amazing projects in which we can do so, for example Digital Matatus, which shows how to pull the omnipresent nature of mobile technology in developing countries to collect data for infrastructure. This data created a new, successful transit map for Nairobi and has led to a spark, where similar projects are developing in other cities.

Sarah Williams is an Associate Professor of Technology and Urban Planning at MIT Director of the Civic Data Design Lab and Author. Follow her on Twitter ( https://bit.ly/3zqRFuz ) or LinkedIn ( https://bit.ly/3ex40Fn )
