Webinar 1 - The governance and ethics of digital data and AI on 25 June 2025 at 10-11 CET
In this presentation, Prof Barbara Prainsack will introduce the concept of data solidarity as both a normative principle and a practical framework for governing digital technologies, particularly artificial intelligence (AI). AI systems depend heavily on data. However, how this data is collected, shared, and governed significantly impacts whether these systems uphold or undermine democratic values. She will argue that integrating solidarity into data practices — by promoting inclusivity, transparency, and shared responsibility — is crucial for addressing power imbalances and ensuring that AI contributes to social justice, democratic participation, and the common good.
