(TA3.19) The Data Values Project - redefining what it means to live in a digital society

Organiser(s): Global Partnership for Sustainable Development Data (GPSDD)

Since the Sustainable Development Goals were introduced, a vibrant and diverse community has sprung up around the technical need to be able to monitor progress around them. Yet data and information systems shape every element of our lives and our digital interconnectedness is reshaping our world. The time has come to ask ourselves what do we collectively stand for? What are the common values, ethics and standards underpinning our collaborative efforts? And what do we owe to the people whose data we collect and analyse? This event will explore those questions.
The Data Values Project is a policy consultation and advocacy campaign aiming to unlock the value of data for all. It’s a global community working to tackle how governments, businesses and civil society are using data - collaborating along three tracks of action to develop common positions and policies on data ethics, rights and governance issues:

Data as a route to inclusion and equity, seeking to hear from unheard voices on what genuine inclusion looks like across the data value chain and how we can make this standard practice.
Data that is well-governed, surfacing different perspectives and defining the building blocks for a shared vision around good data governance.
Data that powers sustainable and equitable development, identifying barriers and enablers for driving inclusive and sustainable engagement around data use for public good. This virtual event will discuss redefining what it means to live in a virtual society. This includes fostering greater agency -the capacity to effect change on things that matter to you and your community. We’ll discuss changing norms and how data services are shaping them. And we’ll talk about the data for development community’s nascent trajectory towards shared policy and advocacy positions.
