Aging in Data: Public workshop
Event description
In this participatory workshop, participants will explore social practices and imaginaries with data, particularly in the context of aging. Participants will work with aging researchers and experts to discuss aging in relation to:
- Media
- Games
- Data harms & justice
- Care
- Health
We will explore questions including: What roles do media play in helping us map and understand the relationship between aging and data? How can games help us explore the possibilities and limitations of aging and data? What data harms and justice concerns do older adults have? How can these concerns be mitigated? And, how will care and health practices and policies need to adapt to the increasingly datafied world in which we age?
