- How did data from online teen relationship forums help the Alannah & Madeline Foundation develop a social media campaign that prevents online abuse?
- What happened when a team of social scientists and data scientists collaborated with the Melbourne not-for-profits to visualise social impact through data analytics?

In this lunchtime webinar, researchers from the Swinburne node of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Automated Decision-Making & Society and the Social Innovation Research Institute share practical insights from recent interdisciplinary research partnerships with industry that brought social scientists and data scientists together for social impact.
