“Housing is clearly a human right and duty that serves the common good. Housing is foundational for human flourishing.” — Margaret Pfeil, an Institute faculty member & CST expert who, along with @lucy_institute faculty, won a nearly $200,000 grant for their two-year project.
ND researchers are using #AI to fight stigmas against those experiencing homelessness. “Having this information is like getting the diagnosis when you go to the doctor. Once we examine this, we can also work on counteracting it with the local community."

Former Institute grad fellow @louisaconwill shares the origins of a framework for software engineering based in Catholic social teaching that she wrote w/ Institute faculty @MeganKLevis & faculty fellow @wjscheirer, outlined in the @litpress book Virtue in Virtual Spaces.
Our framework hinges on the idea that technology is not neutral; rather, the values motivating a technology’s design can influence its impact on society. --Louisa Conwill
