The roundtable centred on AI Infrastructure in and for the Global South. ODI has published the roundtable summary note<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftheodi.org%2Farticle%2Foctavia-and-data-imaginations%2F&data=04%7C01%7CTrereE%40cardiff.ac.uk%7C02956e1c2ec64f7c76f808da02afdc69%7Cbdb74b3095684856bdbf06759778fcbc%7C1%7C0%7C637825251633097250%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=jCG1fUycwoRIhdZolooI4yEwXvQqdKq05TwF8TfMQdk%3D&reserved=0> along with audio clips of the keynote and provocations online (also shared on social media here<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FODIHQ%2Fstatus%2F1501948704248369154&data=04%7C01%7CTrereE%40cardiff.ac.uk%7C02956e1c2ec64f7c76f808da02afdc69%7Cbdb74b3095684856bdbf06759778fcbc%7C1%7C0%7C637825251633097250%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=sdUOLYR2iB4uPe3SVNaZB1i3zgqhZi6BY95n5W5sdoA%3D&reserved=0>). The summary note includes a resource guide enriched by recommendations made by roundtable attendees during the event discussion and has been published as a “living document” that is now open for reader comments.

My keynote was inspired by work with Stefania Milan on buen vivir with data which we developed in this Open Access resource:
https://itforchange.net/digital-new-deal/2021/01/25/latin-american-visions-digital-new-deal-towards-buen-vivir-data/

This has already sparked a vibrant conversation which we very much hope will continue!

Abrazos,
Emiliano
