Your favourite Meetup is back 😎
We want to invite everyone to join our DAMA Norway Community meetup at the Data Democracy: citizen-led governance & closing the data equity gap, where we will host two great speakers:
Geoffrey van IJzendoorn-Joshi and Nina Mathisen
Data gives us knowledge. AI scales how we learn from it. But when citizens have no access to, or control over their own data, while organisations profit from it, we face a data equity problem that erodes democratic rights. Data Management and Governance professionals and others interested in or working with the societal impact of data and our democracy are uniquely equipped to uncover this gap, the misalignment between the current data economy and citizens' rights and interests. We invite you to the first Data Democracy meetup. What our speakers will cover: • The reality of data inequity: the tensions between sovereignty and innovation • Real-world solutions: how organisations can empower citizens as stakeholders, not just data sources • The roadmap: digital wallets, device data access, and building citizen-centric data governance that strengthens both trust and innovation Who should attend: Data Management professionals, governance leaders, policy practitioners, and others interested in or working with the societal impact of data and our democracy
🎉 There will be an amazing atmosphere, pizza, and you can win the book from our next Book Club, which takes place on November 20😊
