Our
work
How can we shape and harness the power of data science to help us answer our most pressing human needs?
The work of the Datavysts is about reimagining the role of emerging technology in supporting society to build a better future — together.
Our work assembles diverse minds and skilled hands from across sectors, forming a groundbreaking collaboration that will translate evidence into action, and turn possibilities into positive impact.
Our pioneering research, real-world development and multidisciplinary training spans four distinct yet interconnected areas…

Data for social economy
Living labs
AI-for-common-good academy
We need a big cultural shift on ageing: from the focus being on ‘end of life’ to ‘making most of life’. How can we harness citizen science for healthier outcomes?
Prof Greet Cardon, Ghent University
We want to see solutions mature enough so some NGOs can find use in them and test them. And we need to disseminate our work more broadly if we want it to have an impact.
Dr Mitja Luštrek, Jožef Stefan Institute
Social innovation usually struggles with scalability. Using technology, we need to create new paradigms and repurpose innovation so that it can meet growing needs.
Asst prof Enrico Bellazzecca, Politecnico Milano
The rapid pace of change in AI could quickly render research obsolete. Mitigating this will involve continuous learning through community activities and updates.
