Digital volunteers disrupt asymmetrical power dynamics
For the Centre’s 2022 Report on ‘Civil Society Innovation and Digital Power Shift’, we’re speaking with inspirational innovators from civil society organisations around the world to hear the stories of their inclusive innovation approaches to advance people-centred digitalisation, to either address system power imbalances or capitalise on emerging people power and technological capabilities.
In this new episode, Nyambura Mbugua speaks with Sophie Dyer, Product Manager at Amnesty International, about how the Amnesty Decoders project combines citizen science and data science, people and automation.
