Step 1 – Identifying an issue
Identifying a concrete ethical issue in a real algorithm or data-analysis tool
Step 2 – Problem statement
Description of ethical issue, legal aspects, statistical methodology and hearing stakeholders and affected groups
Step 3 – Advice commission
Deliberative conversation on ethical issue by diverse and inclusive advice commission
Step 4 – Public advice
Advice of commission is published together with problem statement on our website. Publicly sharing the problem statement and normative advice is called algoprudence
Over the years, we have developed our own deliberative audit methodology. Algorithm Audit’s guidelines for convening a normative advice commission can be consulted in the below document. Get in touch to share feedback about these guidelines.
