The Responsible Computer Science Challenge also supports the development of educational materials or training workshops at innovation hubs that directly help students and builders incorporate social and political perspectives in the design of new technologies.
Principal investigators from innovation hubs should be contracted staff members who are authorized to plan and execute events for the hub’s networks.
