The Center for Technological Responsibility, Redesign, and Reimagination (CNTR), housed within the Data Science Institute at Brown, is dedicated to advancing technologies that center the needs and aspirations of all, particularly those historically underserved and marginalized by technological development. As a hub for redefining computer science education, research, and technology, CNTR brings together scholars, students, and industry leaders to reimagine the role of technology through collaborative, impact-driven projects that bring CNTR's values to life. From the CNTR AISLE Initiative, which helps make AI legislation accessible to the public, to efforts that reshape computer science classes to interrogate the social dimensions of technology, CNTR explores how we can harness emerging technologies in more equitable and responsible ways that advance the public good.
