Public interest technology refers to a set of practices to design, deploy and govern technology in ways that advance the public interest.

Interdisciplinary by nature, it involves the ability to assess and respond to the core ethical, legal, policy, social, economic and political implications of technology. PIT draws from technical fields like computer science, data science, and engineering, along with law, public policy, movement-building, philosophy, the social sciences, the arts and humanities, and more.

PIT centers justice, dignity and autonomy for all, in particular for those most exposed to and impacted by technological harms.
