Organisation profile

Information

The Digital x Data Research Centre addresses local, national, and global opportunities and challenges related to digitalization and datafication, with a focus on the latest advancements in AI and data science.

Our work aims to harness the transformative potential of technology without losing sight of consequences, broadly related to fundamental ideas of responsibility, explainability, and sustainability. LSBU’s global reputation for reducing inequalities further underscores our commitment to conducting research that not only advances knowledge but also promotes social justice and equity.

In pursuit of these aims, we believe that an interdisciplinary and intersectional approach is necessary, drawing from science and technology as well as the arts and humanities. Furthermore, we combine an applied and practical approach with sustainable partnerships and exchanges between academia, industry, and the public sector. This not only fosters innovation but also ensures that our research has a tangible, real-world impact, and clear and transformative sense of purpose.
