| New Data School publication |
| Data School’s latest publication in the Journal of Responsible Technology, authored by Iris Muis, Julia Straatman and Bart Kamphorst, draws lessons from 15 FRAIA trajectories that Data School and Rijks ICT Gilde (RIG) facilitated and offers practical recommendations for effectively guiding your organization through the impact assessment. In the publication, they share observations from fifteen FRAIA trajectories performed in the field within the Dutch public sector context. Based on their experiences facilitating these trajectories, they offer a set of recommendations directed at practitioners with the aim of helping organisations make the best use of FRAIA and similar impact assessment instruments. |
| Recap of Data School's Impact Conference |
|
- How can scholars and practitioners join forces to bridge the gap between academic inquiry and urgent societal challenges?
- What roadblocks stand in the way of translating research into practical change, and how might these roadblocks be reimagined as opportunities for cross-sector collaboration?
- And most significantly, how can such collaborative research foster more diverse, equitable, and inclusive responses to the intricacies of our data-driven society – and lead to meaningful, lasting impact?
These were among the central questions at the heart of Data School’s workshop-driven conference Making a Difference: Societal Impact through Collaborative Research that took place on 7 & 8 April 2025 in Utrecht, the Netherlands.
