You can use the empty_label parameter to set the value

class MyFilter(django_filters.FilterSet):
    type = django_filters.ChoiceFilter(
        choices=Data_TYPE,
        field_name='data_type',
        empty_label="Any string you want to put"
    )

    class Meta:
        model = Project
        fields = ['category', 'type']
