People & Culture

People and Culture Working Group (PCWG) is a community forum for learning, knowledge sharing, and collaboration. We connect on common priorities and challenges to share best practices and lived experiences on all things data. Inclusivity is at our bedrock where we invite data practitioners and stakeholders of all classifications and levels with diverse educational and professional backgrounds to participate.

Our mandate is to transmit the knowledge and value of data to transform the people and culture around data and data literacy. Critical inquiry and reflection on issues and challenges faced by the community provide opportunity for collective intelligence building and collaborative approaches to problem-solving, which can create new ways of thinking and doing. In turn, members can bring back knowledge and ideas to their networks and advance discussions further.

Their efforts are supported by a three-point framework:

community building (learning events and information sharing); and
research (exploring new and enabling methodologies).
