EA Book+ Discussions: Invisible Women

​Join us for a discussion about Invisible Women: Exposing Data Bias in a World Designed for Men by Caroline Criado Perez. This eye-opening book reveals how gender bias is embedded in the systems and structures around us—from healthcare to urban planning to workplace policies—by exposing the consequences of a world built around male-default data.

​As effective altruists, we aim to do the most good, but are we missing key perspectives due to data gaps? How does the lack of gender-disaggregated data impact global health, economic policies, and even cause prioritization? Could addressing these biases make our interventions more effective and inclusive, or does it risk diverting focus from the most pressing problems?

​Let’s dive into these questions and explore how recognizing and addressing data bias can lead to a more impactful and evidence-based approach to improving the world.
