</ul>
 +
<p>Leveraging the value of data is directly linked to the speed and scale of how it is gathered, shared and used. The federal government must ensure that data is secure and protected against threats while leveraging it for public good. Can sound management strategies for data assets and IT systems confidentiality help to build and protect data as a competitive advantage for Canadians? This keynote by Melissa Hathaway will bring a unique perspective on the intersection of government policy, developing technological and industry trends, and the economic drivers that impact acquisition and strategy. </p>

<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>

</ul>
 +
<p>Data is the fuel and digital 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 digital processes adhere to sound governance that includes transparency and accountability, while protecting privacy and fostering trust.</p>

 +
<p>Advancing reconciliation is central to the nation-to-nation relationships between the Government of Canada and Indigenous peoples across Canada. Collaboration with Indigenous partners and support for Indigenous-led data and research capacity will enable the development and implementation of solutions for using data and data technologies to contribute to safer, healthier, and economically resilient Indigenous communities. How will these collaborations and solutions bridge the gap between policy objectives and practice? What new perspectives and approaches are needed to build trust and cooperation to move forward?</p>

Leveraging data as a competitive advantage and the role of the public sector

Leveraging the value of data is directly linked to the speed and scale of how it is gathered, shared and used. The federal government must ensure that data is secure and protected against threats while leveraging it for public good. Can sound management strategies for data assets and IT systems confidentiality help to build and protect data as a competitive advantage for Canadians? This keynote by Melissa Hathaway will bring a unique perspective on the intersection of government policy, developing technological and industry trends, and the economic drivers that impact acquisition and strategy.

Role of data and the digitalization of government

Data is the fuel and digital 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 digital processes adhere to sound governance that includes transparency and accountability, while protecting privacy and fostering trust.
