In an era marked by rapid technological change...

Data science and next generation measurement approaches and tools—be they big data, machine learning, artificial intelligence, satellite imagery or mobile technology—are opening new possibilities for addressing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). What are the implications for how we judge impact?

On behalf of The Rockefeller Foundation and UN Women, this panel brings together industry experts from diverse schools of thought to explore how data science and new M&E technologies are supporting efforts to assess the SDGs. Among the various topics, we will explore are:

• Tensions and trade-offs in the adoption of these new capabilities
• Ways to ensure we move toward an equitable and inclusive future
• Questions we should be asking ourselves now, but aren’t

We look forward to seeing you at this lively, early fall happy hour gathering. Beverages provided. Note that space is limited.
