Corinne Cath

Corinne Cath is a doctoral student at the Oxford Internet Institute, University of Oxford and at the Alan Turing Institute for data science and artificial intelligence.

She is a cultural anthropologist whose research covers engineering culture, Internet governance, and the social significance of data-driven technologies like artificial intelligence. She is an expert in technology policy.

Her doctoral research focuses on public interest advocacy in technical spaces, including organizations developing Internet standards and machine learning systems. She is interested in understanding what public interest advocacy and social justice activism look like when NGOs (and civil society more broadly) have to contend with codemakers as opposed to lawmakers.

Prior to her PhD, she worked as a program officer at human rights NGO ARTICLE 19 in London and as policy advisor for the US House of Representatives in Washington D.C. Corinne has an MSc in Social Science of the Internet from the University of Oxford, an MA in International Relations and BA in Anthropology from the University of Utrecht.
