Vicki and Geraldine talk to Kat Dixon, who spent the summer of 2022 exploring the ways data poverty damages people’s ability to live fully, as well as a host of really exciting local initiatives to counteract it.

Talking points:

• Why you don’t have to be poor to experience data poverty.
• Solutions to data poverty exist, but some are much less desirable than others. What makes the difference?
• How far could a new national strategy for solving data poverty help with the UK’s crisis of low productivity?
