#84 - Women’s History Now: The Women Behind the Coronavirus Resource Center
Manage episode 408319276 series 1999028
--- In this episode, we celebrate Women’s History Month by talking to some of the women who made history by leading the development of the Coronavirus Resource Center, or “CRC.” Launched in January 2020, the CRC became the indispensable source for data about COVID-19 for government officials, academics, journalists, and the pubic, surpassing 2.5 billion website views before winding down last year.
--- Our history-making guests include:
- Dr. Lauren Gardner, Alton and Sandra Cleveland Professor in the Department of Civil and Systems Engineering at Johns Hopkins Whiting School of Engineering,
- Beth Blauer, Associate Vice Provost for Public Sector Innovation at Johns Hopkins University and founder of GovEx,
- Dr. Sara Bertran de Lis, Director of Research and Analytics at GovEx, and
- Mary Conway Vaughan, Deputy Director of Research and Analytics at GovEx.
--- We discuss the origins and ongoing relevance of public-facing data dashboards like the CRC, look at some of the challenges involved in capturing and reporting public data, and unpack if and how the fact that women led most facets of this project impacted the project. We will also hear about how these women balanced their essential work with the uncertainty and chaos that COVID-19 brought to all of our lives.
