Technology, like algorithms and artificial intelligence, take part in our daily lives. Most of the time we are not aware of it and do not realise they have such an impact. We perceive them as neutral, while they are manmade and therefore subjective. Racial Bias in Tech is an accessible event that wants to share examples that show a prolongation of colonialism in different practices.

Since science and technology take part in our societies and lives, we need them. But the best practices in science and technology need revision too, especially when there is a prolongation of colonialism – power relations – in the system. This event is the perfect opportunity to do this together with an audience.
