Democratizing Evidence: Bridging Data & Practice

Description:

We are in the midst of a data revolution. Yet with billions, and even trillions of data points, when it comes to actionable information, decision makers still don’t have the data they need, in the format they need it, when they need it. During this workshop, attendees will use a human-centered design approach for discussing barriers to obtaining and using evidence in public policy and will prototype solutions for better data-driven decision making.
