A humanist view of secondary data: a necessity in the face of the world's metamorphosis

Today, the latest episode of the Compor Mundos Podcast featuring Diogo Guedes Vidal and Rui Maia was released on Spotify. They reflected on the power of secondary data and its influence on understanding health, the environment, and demography in contemporary societies. This reflection started from the premise that secondary data, often underestimated, has the potential to reveal profound insights into the complex web of factors shaping our lives. However, there is an acknowledgement of the lack of a humanistic approach to interpreting this data, going beyond numbers and statistics and unravelling the stories, meanings, and experiences they represent.
