How to use data as a tool for empowerment rather than oppression.Big data can be used for goodfrom tracking disease to exposing human rights violationsand for badimplementing surveillance and control. Data inevitably represents the ideologies of those who control its use; data analytics and algorithms too often exclude women, the poor, and ethnic groups. In Data Action, Sarah Williams provides a guide for working with data in more ethical and responsible ways. Too often data has been usedand manipulatedto make policy decisions without much stakeholder input. Williams outlines a method that emphasizes collaboration among data scientists, policy experts, data designers, and the public. This approach creates trust and coownership in the data by opening the process to those who know the issues best.
