Call for papers: how can novel data sources and technology enhance
peace?
Data and technology can play a critical role in fostering peace and
preventing future conflicts. To better understand this, the Data &
Policy Journal of Cambridge University
[https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/data-and-policy] has
established a peer-reviewed, open-access journal on the ways in which
new data sources and technology enhance peace. The journal is now
inviting contributions for a special collection of papers on ‘Data
for Peace: how novel data sources and technology can enhance peace?
[https://medium.com/data-policy/data-for-peace-how-novel-data-sources-and-technology-can-enhance-peace-587df66d742c]’.

The aim of this collection is to investigate how new data sources and
technology can support the enhancement of peace by examining local and
global practices that strive towards social and political peace using
technology and data. The journal seeks to explore how data collection,
analysis and use of data and technology can be designed and
implemented in an ethical manner. Moreover, they aim to understand the
legal and regulatory tools used to ensure ethical use of data and
technology. 

The insights of this research could support policymakers,
practitioners and researchers in the field of peace and technology.
Data-driven approaches to peace(building) can help identify and target
the roots of conflicts, be of potential use for compromises in
agreements and improve the evaluation and monitoring of peace-related
operations. Finally, the Data & Policy Journal
[https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/data-and-policy] aims to give
a comprehensive and multidisciplinary perspective on data and
technology for peace with insights and recommendations.
