The third date of the Data Feminism Workshop will take place online via zoom on Thursday, 21.01.2021 between 18:00 - 19:30.

Following the topics and format of the book “Data Feminism” by Catherine D’Ignazio and Lauren F. Klein, the series will consist of four sessions, in which participants will be introduced by Prof. Rebecca Frank and her Team to feminist perspectives in Library and Information Science.

The aim of the workshop series is to reflect and discuss feminism in information science (with a special emphasis on data science) and to create a space for exchange about (future) work.

Which perspective might be missing in a statistic?

Whose perspective is reflected by an information collection or a technology?

What can be done to be more integrative in data and information science?

Whose voice is heard?

The interactive workshop sessions will encourage discussions on how critically reflected and conscious decisions about information, data and data processing can be made in the future.

The workshop series will be held in English and is supported by the Frauenförderung an der Philosophischen Fakultät.
