Shaping the Future of Data Ethics: EDI Town Hall 2025

The first annual Ethical Data Initiative multi-stakeholder town hall meeting titled “Shaping the Future of Data Ethics: EDI Town Hall 2025” will take place on March 31, 2025, at the TUM Think Tank, Munich School of Politics and Public Policy, Richard-Wagner-Straße 1, 80333 Munich.

The event and workshop will bring together EDI Affiliates, selected experts and key stakeholders to discuss the future of research and data ethics, while collaboratively shaping plans for our activities and community. The programme will include updates on ongoing EDI activities in education, policy, and research, as well as insights from leading data practitioners, global institutions, and policy networks.

We are excited to introduce our two confirmed keynote speakers:

– Hilary Hanahoe, Secretary General of the Research Data Alliance (RDA)

– Xiao-Li Meng, Founding Editor-in-Chief of the Harvard Data Science Review and former Dean of the Harvard University Graduate School of Arts and Sciences

Parts of the event will be hybrid, however, we are pleased to offer a number of in-person places to our wider networks.
