Hi everyone! For next week's UW Change Seminar talk for the quarter (Jan 17th) will be hearing from Tricia Aung <https://www.triciaaung.com/> from the HCDE @ UW. Tricia's talk is titled "Visualizing global health data for epistemic justice".
*Description* Advancements in data collection and pressure for data-driven accountability has created vast amounts of health data in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Visualizing global health data can be a powerful advocacy strategy, but also can be weaponized to reinforce epistemic injustice and exacerbate systemic harms. This talk will review my experiences leading research and workshops on global health data visualization preferences and sensemaking for decision-makers in LMICs. *Resources for Attendees* *1. *WHO-UNICEF Technical Expert Advisory Group on Nutrition Monitoring (TEAM) on designing effective data visualizations <https://data.unicef.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/NNIS-Technical-note3-data-visualization-web1.pdf>(authored by the Tricia) *Seminar Details* *Location*: Tuesdays from 12-1pm in 271 CSE2 (The Bill and Melinda Gates Center) *Zoom:* https://washington.zoom.us/j/93100061611 *Presenter Bio* Tricia is a PhD student in the Department of Human Centered Design and Engineering (HCDE) at University of Washington.
