SUMMARY:PeaceTech and Data4peace: What are we learning?
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we explore key insights into PeaceTech\, the interdisciplinary field using data for peace.   \nThis introductory event will draw on PSRP’s work and partnership to offer key insights and learnings from the PeaceTech team at the University of Edinburgh\, including: \n\nWhat is PeaceTech? How can technology help facilitate inclusive peace\, and what is the new potential regarding data analysis?\nData on peace processes: What are the new possibilities for data collection\, analysis\, and connectivity: what can we do with data on peace and conflict now that we couldn’t do 10 years ago?\nWhat types of interdisciplinary and research-practice-tech teams are needed to produce effective PeaceTech projects?\nWhat lessons have we learned about designing an effective collaborative PeaceTech project in the ‘data’ space?\n\nWe will share key learnings and examples from our PeaceTech work\, including our Covid-19 Ceasefires Tracker\, a publicly available digital tracking tool to examine the consequences of the coronavirus outbreak on peace processes and armed conflict across the world. The tool monitors the progress of ceasefires alongside live data on infection rates in country. The data can be viewed in a timeline format\, a search browse format\, and a map format which also includes live data on infection rates in country. \nThe University of Edinburgh’s PeaceTech team is a unique collaboration between peace builders\, data scientists\, and many others who are helping shape the PeaceTech space\, using cutting-edge technologies and data to build digital platforms that facilitate inclusive peacebuilding.  \nFeaturing Prof Christine Bell\, Dr Sanja Badanjak\, Dr Devanjan Bhattacharya\, and Fiona Knäussel from the Political Settlements Research Programme\, with special guest Dr Benjamin Bach\, Lecturer in Design Informatics and Visualization at the Bayes Centre\, School of Informatics\, University of Edinburgh\, as event chair. \nThis event will be held on Zoom. Joining instructions will be sent to registered participants. \nRegister now. \n  \nPeace Talks Series\nThis event is part of PSRP’s Peace Talks webinar series\, which will run from October 2020 – March 2021.
