We hear *a lot* from tech execs and politicians. Our campaign is to put the diverse #communities effected by #data and #AI at the centre of narratives, practice and #policy.

As part of that, we aim to contribute to a community of our own. This brief monthly #newsletter - including our Data Policy Digest - is a small offering towards that.

Official #floodplain #maps, used when making important decisions about #zoning and #property #development, are #outdated and omit critical information, in particular about potential #climateimpacts. Inaccuracies and omissions from #FEMA’s dataset likely #perpetuate the under protection of high-exposure, high-vulnerability #communities

Many people working at the agency are “aware of the historical and #structuralbias,” the recent #NAACP #report found. Yet decisions about whom to #protect from #flooding #disasters and how to do it “are structured in ways that do not always represent the needs of #lowwealth #communities of #color.”

#whiteprivilege: The move to disproportionately lower what the #wealthy pay in #taxes will further undermine #communities that #suffer from #disinvestment... more budget cuts will come for essential services, like #publiceducation and #infrastructure #maintenance. Lower-income residents, they warn, will be hurt most.

“The wealthy tend to always look out for themselves,” Edwards said.

Our three main strategic goals are to change data narratives, governance practices and public policies. (2/8)

Its been a big first year for us, without a quiet day in #data and #AI #policy and #politics!

Here's a short thread of some ways in which we're moving the dial on narrative, practice and policy of data - with #communities at the centre.

"But our ability to control fires is limited, and there is now an urgent need to build
#resilient #communities, #robust lines of #communication and
holistic #ResponsePlans [...].

This will require concrete adaptations such as equipping schools, care facilities and other critical municipal buildings with proper filtration to protect vulnerable communities from #smoke-induced #AirPollution. However, true resilience will also require building less tangible #infrastructure" [1]
