<font style="font-family: Georgia"> '''''Spotlight on Canadian Statistics Advisory Council 2020 Annual Report: Towards a Stronger National Statistical System'''''
  
The Canadian Statistics Advisory Council (CSAC), an independent advisory body put in place by the government in late 2017 to improve the quality of Canada’s national statistics system, issued their first report in October 2020. In this panel, Council members discuss the objectives and findings of their report, and invite input from the audience. The discussion will highlight the recommendations of the Council to overcome the challenges regarding the collection, accessibility and use of detailed statistics. A key theme in the conversation will be the socio-economic and health data gaps that impede decision-making, particularly regarding racialized groups and Indigenous Peoples, and the need for a more integrated data ecosystem.

Foundational pieces in the operationalization of data strategies across the Government of Canada include frameworks to advance data quality and ways of formalizing the role of data stewards. How can networks of data stewards better support data quality work at the enterprise level? What are some of the lessons learned in the assignment of department-wide roles and responsibilities regarding data quality? This session will focus on the experience of data governance journeys and discuss approaches to reporting and decision-making as organizations develop tools to support data stewards in their efforts to improve data quality.

The panel discussion will explore the value and how to boost the adoption of common data standards across government. Common data standards support the interoperability and the data exchange required both to improve analysis and policymaking, and to hasten progress towards truly digital, user-focused service delivery. Topics include discussion on the business value of standards; how best to develop and introduce standards; how to encourage take-up among departments and agencies; and how to allocate responsibilities for driving and monitoring adoption.

The third and concluding plenary of the Conference will feature unique perspectives on data literacy for those who manage, analyze and use data and data products to participate more actively in the data landscape. Conversation themes will include: approaches to measure, map and develop data literacy across organisations; current initiatives to support data literacy training and upskilling in the Government of Canada; data literacy as a cluster of essential competencies needed for the appreciation of the full value of administrative data beyond its immediate operational use, including its value for transparent government and its impact on public policy and the public good; data literacy demands on the public service and the range of learning opportunities and innovative solutions for core government functions in areas of digital enablement, accessibility and data sharing.
