Accountability and Traceability White Paper & Research Roadmap

whitePaper | April 18, 2023

The MIT Future of Data Initiative is leading a multi-disciplinary research agenda to design and stimulate the deployment of consumer-empowering and accountable systems to provide trusted, traceable uses of personal data on an ecosystem-wide scale.
