Data Ethics Club and the Jean Golding Institute are working with interdisciplinary researchers to create the Data Hazards Project. Please see the project website for the most up-to-date information.
We are creating resources to help interdisciplinary researchers and citizens consider the worse-case scenarios of data science work together, and for these ethical concerns to be embedded in the research. For a full list of our aims and strategies to achieve them, please see our website.

The Data Hazards Project was founded by Dr Natalie Zelenka and Dr Nina Di Cara, and is now co-led by Dr Huw Day, Dr Will Chapman, Natalie, and Nina. We’re always keen to hear from people interested in the project, or wanting to get involved!
Huw and Will both work at the Jean Golding Institute at the University of Bristol are interested in hearing from (primarily Bristol based) collaborators. Will (will.chapman@bristol.ac.uk) is the person to talk to about applying and using the Data Hazards labels in research. Huw (huw.day@bristol.ac.uk) is the person to talk to about applying and using the Data Hazards in teaching (e.g. getting students to consider the ethical implications of data science applications using the hazards labels as a framework). Nina (nina.dicara@bristol.ac.uk) now works in industry but remains an honorary researcher at the University of Bristol and is happy to chat with people interested in extending the Data Hazards into new application areas or giving advice on future research using them.
We use the all-contributors specification to celebrate all kinds of contributions to this project. Emoji key here!
