+      How do the opportunities of complex, data-driven models relate to their limitations and political sensitivities, and what realistic demands can we make regarding the standardization and transparency of their scientific and democratic legitimacy?
+
+      Topics discussed:
+      * What (theoretical) frameworks and instruments we see available for validating, verifying, and ensuring transparency when governments deploy models (and algorithms)?
+
+      * What (theoretical) “menu” these paint for governments to choose from
+      
+      * What prospects we see for governments to communicate openly about their use of models in a consistent and auditable way?

+    description: >
+      In 2024-25, Algorithm Audit collaborated with the Dutch Ministry of the Interior and the Dutch Executive Agency for Education (DUO) to develop and test tools designed to validate algorithmic systems. Two open-source tools were launched on June 10th 12-13h (in Dutch) and June 13th 12-13h (in English). Topics discussed:
+      
+      1. [Unsupervised bias detection tool](/technical-tools/bdt/#web-app): How to detect bias if no demographic data is available?
+
+      2. [Synthetic data generation](/technical-tools/sdg/#web-app): How can third parties evaluate dataset representativeness without personal data being shared?
+      
+
+      The tools developed provide answers for these questions. The tools are built following a local-only architecture, meaning that data are processed by your own device without being uploaded to external (commercial) platforms or cloud providers.

+    description: >
+      In 2024-25 werkte Algorithm Audit samen met het Ministerie van Binnenlandse Zaken en de Dienst Uivoering Onderwijs (DUO) aan de ontwikkeling en het testen van tools voor de validatie van algoritmische systemen. Twee open-source tools werden gelanceerd op 10-06-2025 (Nederlands) en 13-06-2025 (Engels) tijdens online lunch webinars. Besproken onderwerpen:
+
+      1. [Unsupervised bias detection tool](/technical-tools/bdt/#web-app): Hoe detecteer je bias als er geen demografische data beschikbaar is?
+
+      2. [Synthetic data generation](/technical-tools/sdg/#web-app): Hoe kunnen derden de representativiteit van datasets beoordelen zonder dat persoonsgegevens gedeeld worden?
+
+
+      De ontwikkelde tools bieden antwoorden op bovenstaande vragen. De tools zijn ontwikkeld volgens een local-only architectuur, wat betekent dat data uitsluitend op je eigen apparaat worden verwerkt en niet worden geüpload naar externe (commerciële) platforms of cloudproviders.
