Dear colleagues,



I will appreciate your kind help to share this important conference
information with your colleagues and academic networks. Details below.



The Committee on Data of the International Science Council (ISC)
<https://council.science/>, CODATA <https://codata.org/> helps realise
ISC’s vision <https://council.science/about-us/> of advancing science as a
global public good. CODATA’s vision is of a world in which science is
empowered to address universal challenges through the transparent,
trustworthy and equitable use of data and information. CODATA’s mission is
to connect data and people to advance science and improve our world.



The purpose of the Data Ethics Task Group (DETG) is to provide advice to
CODATA, including the International Data Policy Committee, on current data
ethics issues, in areas such as scientific integrity, protection of
personal data, indigenous data sovereignty, computational uses of data
including AI and machine learning, and equality, diversity and inclusion.
