Cases for Discussion - data, ethics, and civil society

Last year when I wrote the Blueprint 2014 I included a few scenarios regarding nonprofits, foundations and the uses of digital data (see pages 22-23).

Now we're on the brink of hosting an entire conference on the Ethics of Data in Civil Society.

We're pulling together resources from the field and from scholars. I was thrilled when Jeff Raderstrong, now of Living Cities, sent me these Case Studies he and a colleague developed for classes at George Washington University.

We'll share these on the conference website (http://stanford.io/ethicsofdata) where you can also find a provocation piece written by Andrew Woods -  Keep checking there for more resources as they become available.

You can follow the conference planning and pre-conference discussions on Twitter at #EoD14.

Thanks for sharing, Jeff and Katlyn.
