Communicating the critical importance of exercising caution around railroad tracks isn’t always an easy task – especially when you’re trying to reach teens and young adults. Beginning in 2014, CSX railroad decided to pursue an innovative, new approach to reach this target audience: communicating directly through their peers. CSX partnered with Wide Angle Youth Media, a Baltimore-based non-profit organization providing local youth with media education and mentorship, to help young adults develop media campaigns that communicate rail safety messaging to their peers: urban youth between the ages of 16 and 25.

A new initiative from Bloomberg, BrightHive, and Data for Democracy is looking to create shared values on the ethics of data science. In September, at Bloomberg’s 2017 Data for Good Exchange (D4GX), the group announced a project called the “Community Principles on Ethical Data Sharing” (or CPEDS), which is designed to develop a set of guidelines for data scientists related to data sharing and collaboration on data-driven projects.
Two themes appeared during almost every session during the 2017 Data for Good Exchange (D4GX), held at the Bloomberg headquarters on Sunday, September 24. One was the need to generate trust between data scientists and the people whose data they hold. Another was the need to address the bias that often appears in data and algorithms.
