    <strong>“How not to use your data like a racist”</strong> will take place<strong> Thursday, February 18 from 11:00-11:45 am (Eastern Time Zone). </strong>This session is <strong>open to anyone who wishes to join, regardless of whether or not you are registered for Data on Purpose</strong>.<br>

    Heather Krause, founder of<strong> <a href="https://idatassist.com/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Datassist</a> </strong>and<strong> <a href="https://weallcount.com/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">We All Count</a></strong>,
     will lead this discussion, where we will explore how to effectively 
    incorporate ethics and equity into data products, knowledge tools, and 
    data analysis. The session will provide you with several shocking 
    real-world examples of mistakes made by organizations using data which 
    led to biased outcomes, and a seven-step framework for identifying 
    inequity and hidden bias in the data product lifecycle. As interest in 
    equity in data grows, this framework provides actionable steps for 
    making changes in the way you and your team use data.<br>
