The workshop aims to bring together interdisciplinary social critique of the technologies of everyday bordering and deportations in Britain. In doing so, this collective has the potential to form ethical and decolonised collaborative models of data governance practice and policy for, first, studying the mobilisation of technology in everyday exclusions in historic and current contexts, and second, illustrating how data science technologies can be used to engineer positive change, reducing biases and the negative impacts of the hostile environment, while maximising accountability and transparency of institutions.
Organised by Dr Zoe Alker [History] and Dr Esmorie Miller [School of Law] and supported by the Interdisciplinary Network Fund, Data Science Institute, Lancaster University.
Venue – The Storey, Lancaster
