<h3 style="padding-top:0px;">Data literacy</h3>

<p>What are the key elements that enable organizations to shift to a data literacy that is, in addition to being inclusive of all mindsets, using an accessible, diverse and inclusive approach? Topics during this session include: the need for a culture shift and change management; how data literacy is not just about training; the need to measure, map and develop; and acknowledging both top-down and bottom-up (grassroots) initiatives. The speakers will draw on the experiences of public service and private sector organizations that are leaders in the field and will highlight the factors for success and the ongoing challenges and barriers.</p>

<p>The mass adoption of technology has forced Canadians to change the way they work and interact. Also, it has challenged organizations to remain relevant and competitive as technologies evolve quickly. This session will concentrate on how the Government of Canada is transforming by using data as an asset and digital technologies. The discussion will also address the investments and commitments needed to support data transformation in the long term.</p>

<h3>Role of data and the digitization of government </h3>

<p>Data is the fuel and digitized processes are the engine; they are interdependent and the drivers of change worldwide. Harnessing the power of this interdependency allows federal organizations to improve operational efficiencies, innovate how they work, and improve the way they engage with Canadians. As this interdependency increases, the Government of Canada must demonstrate that the use of data and digitized processes adhere to sound governance that includes transparency and accountability, while protecting privacy and fostering trust.</p>

<h3>Disaggregated data: Equity, diversity and inclusion</h3>

<h3>Disaggregated data: Equity, diversity and inclusion</h3>

<p>Countries around the world have committed to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, including the principle to leave no one behind. Disaggregated data is key to achieving this goal. These data can provide insights about vulnerable sub-populations, and hidden trends can be identified to improve decision and policy-making. Topics include: the importance of disaggregated data with emphasis on equity, diversity and inclusion to bring about representation for all in Canadian policies; challenges due to data gaps and how to resolve these issues; and insights that can improve the lives of Canadians.</p>

<p>The pandemic forced global economies to pivot how they work and how they do business. As businesses and organizations moved permanently online, and working from home has become the norm, will these shifts contribute to a robust post-pandemic economy? How should Canada strategically leverage data and digitized processes to drive its economic recovery and global competitiveness?</p>

<h3>Privacy Frameworks and data for public good</h3>

<h3>Privacy Frameworks and data for public good</h3>

<!--<p>Description</p>-->

<p>In May 2020, Chantal Bernier wrote about how Canada has a framework to provide privacy protection while also collecting data. The Government of Canada must strengthen its trust relationship with Canadians as it depends on both identifiable and unidentifiable data to be relevant and competitive in this digital world. These data are key to the success and acceleration of innovation in Canada. Let's discuss how to manage these data for the collective good while maintaining privacy. </p>
