Social Tech Intersections

What happens when a Psychologist, an Anthropologist and a Computer Scientist walk together into a bar? They decide to create Social Tech Intersections - a podcast that questions our assumptions. Are you a social scientist interested in learning about Artificial Intelligence? Are you an engineer interested in solving human-centric problems? We would like to invite you to our podcast that's created by three women who come from developing countries and who are breaking barriers in more ways than one.

We will introduce some contact tracing concepts and suggestions to show how our different  approaches as a psychologist, anthropologist and computer scientist can help us to offer a more nuanced perspective.
