The culminating activity of the Digital Science Training Program of the UP CIDS Program on Escaping the Middle-Income Trap: Chains for Change (EMIT C4C) and the UP CIDS Program on Data Science for Public Policy (DSPP) was held last December 19, 2020.
The Digital Citizen Science Training Program aims to stimulate the partnership of various societal actors—policymakers, businesses, academe, and communities—in order to jointly address the complex and systemic challenges facing our world today through digital citizen science. The pilot of the five-week program was conducted in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) and was jointly organized by faculty from the University of the Philippines Mindanao, the Institute of Peace and Development in Mindanao, the Data Science Para sa Bayan (DSPB) Initiative, the Community Wireless & Power Corporation, Partnership Resource Center of the Rotterdam School of Management, and UP CIDS.
The two UP CIDS Programs sends its special thanks to their partners from Accenture Advanced Technology Center.
