Demanding a Fair Data Future: The #DataValues Manifesto

The Data Values campaign is a global movement to challenge power structures in data to ensure that we all share in the benefits from its collection and use. The #DataValues Manifesto calls for change in how we design, collect, fund, manage, and use data. Organizations, governments, and people must act now and together to create this change.
