Sustainable Big Data Conversations
The goal of the Sustainable Big Data Conversations is to engage the Big Data Institute (BDI) and Oxford Population Health (OxPop) research community with the topic of the environmental sustainability of their research.
This series of conversations:
- brings key stakeholders in the field of environmental sustainability of data-driven research in conversation with the BDI and OxPop community
- sparks the reflexivity of the research community and the leadership team on issues around environmental sustainability
- explores possibilities for concrete changes that can be done at different levels of the research ecosystem
The inaugural event Sustainable Big Data Conversation Series was held on 17 July 2023:
