Operational ethics

How might we integrate data ethics practices into our work to advance diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging, and justice (DEIJ) in environmental data science? We hope to connect the values of DEIJ to the practice of doing data science both in our internal, cross-domain, and partnership collaborations. This work will focus on operational guidance and example solutions that will directly inform the ‘how’ of our work as data scientists. To do this we will:

• meet every other week as an open community of practice to create
• a living document of operational ethics resources for environmental data scientists: https://jo-wilkin.github.io/ethics-in-eds/ (current draft)
  • Looking at https://theodi.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Data-Ethics-Canvas-English-Colour.pdf for inspiration

• draft operational guidelines for this cluster as a case study in DEIJ (year 1)
• Possible activities for year 2 include:
  • a series of case study focused YouTube recordings of cluster presentations a perspectives paper on how ethics are operationalized in data science
  • educational module for undergraduate and graduate students or Carpentry-style workshop

• presentations at ESIP and other societies (AGU) on cluster activities to extend resources and engage outside perspectives
