Institute of Social Studies Trust, in collaboration with the Heinrich Boll Stiftung, are organizing 35th Gender and Economic Policy Discussion Forum on Understanding body politics in the context of ‘big data’ and information society. The online forum is scheduled for August 31, 2021 from 6:00 PM to 7:15 PM IST via Zoom.

Gadgets, technologies and media are increasingly becoming part of our digital bodies and, with increased technology-mediated governance and policy responses informed by ‘big data', there is a pertinent need that data governance frameworks be informed through an intersectional feminist perspective focused on embodiment.
