Academic publisher SAGE Publishing has entered into a partnership with the Institute for Policy Research at the University of Bath, to establish a new Public Data Lab in order to facilitate social science research, teaching and public engagement activities around the future of the data society.
Incubated at the Institute for Policy Research under the direction of Prize Fellow Dr Jonathan Gray and Professor Nick Pearce, the lab will mobilise an international, interdisciplinary network of researchers, practitioners and organisations in order to develop and disseminate innovative research, teaching, design and participation formats for the creation and use of public data.
The Public Data Lab will support the experimentation around the use, creation and co-production of digital public data in the service of social research, policy-making, advocacy, journalism and public participation around current and future global challenges – from climate change to tax base erosion, migration to automation.
