This event explores the many ways in which biases shape cultural heritage data and the implications they have for GLAM institutions and their Labs worldwide. As discussions around this topic continue to gain momentum, we have invited experts to share their perspectives on gender bias in cultural heritage data, the cultural biases that influence collecting and curating practices, and the impact of algorithmic bias in the tools and technologies used across the sector.
