"Strategic standards now, so people can get back to work soon" is the name of the Atlantic Council Webinar that Jay Williams participated in last week. It was a sharp discussion of next steps, after effects and their societal implications to the world from the CV-19 pandemic.

Here is the Atlantic Council summary of the Webinar -
Rebuilding from COVID-19 requires data-driven decisions, global partnerships, and intentional values baked-in to the tech solutions we employ.
On April 20, 2020 – Dame Wendy Hall, Declan Kiranne, Jay Williams, Daniella Taveau, and John Ackerly shared perspectives on “Strategic standards now, so people can return to work soon“ as part of a live video discussion moderated by Dr. David Bray, Atlantic Council GeoTech Center Director.
This 1-hour live discussion included discussion exploring the strategic standards required to properly identify, authenticate, and certify a workforce ready for work in a post-corona virus workplace. The panelists also discussed:
That if we think we will be “returning to work” the way we used to work, we are probably not recognizing how COVID-19 changes everything; moreover the lack of good data to inform these local decision and how “Data Trusts” might solve this.
The challenges of feeding the world during COVID-19, that there is enough food – just not distributed well with the COVID-19 breakdown; currently South Africa has 50% of its people needing food now.
How data and tech initiatives can do differential privacy and can do encryption on data in a way that preserves privacy and let us find ways to a new normal in which we will know when it is safe to travel, congregate together again, and start rebuilding our communities
