@kanarinka: For example, María Salguero's #NiUnaMenos project amassed the largest public database for femicides in Mexico after the Mexican government refused to track these deaths. This is a form of feminist counter data.

With #DataFeminism, context matters.
•Who is doing the work?
•Who is the data about?
•Who is being harmed? Who is benefiting?

But also consider context over time. What if there is an administration change? When do you want to be counted?
