Abstract / Description of output

Current frameworks of data governance often fail to account for the plurality of the publics they are required to safeguard. Several alternative structures are emerging to democratise and rethink data governance to involve and protect people and their fundamental rights. This 1-day workshop will bring together HCI researchers, practitioners and designers working in areas of privacy, law, policy, social science and community practice to solidify the role of design in engaging communities with deliberate data practices which embed varied lived experiences into new technological developments. Critically addressing issues of care and meaningful representation, we aim to reflect on the impact of collective action and participation in datafied socio-technical infrastructures. To consolidate this research community, the intended workshop outcome is a visual map of the emerging landscape of alternative, community-led governance models, and a set of critically informed guidelines on best practices for design in this field.
