Equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) are more than just central principles of successful teams in data science and beyond — they’re also a rich field that presents interesting and challenging data science problems. This episode, we chat with two EDI specialists at Klaviyo about EDI, the data that powers it, and the challenges that come with using that data. You’ll hear about:

  • Why EDI is a core part of both processes and products
  • How to work with self-reported data — and, sometimes, work around the fact that you don’t actually have the data you want
  • Examples of EDI work in action

You can listen to the full episode on Spotify, or see more details, including other episodes, on our podcast blog.
