DATA FOUNDATIONS

Data literacy

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.

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.

How should Canada strategically leverage data and digitized processes to drive its economic recovery and global competitiveness?

    Privacy Frameworks and data for public good

    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.
