What is the “Unlocking the Power of Data Initiative”?

Have you heard about the UPD Initiative?

This video, produced under the “Unlocking the Power of Data Initiative” framework, will take you on a small journey to the 6 areas of focus – so called workstreams – that are Data Literacy, Financing data, Data Management, Data science, Population projection and climate change and Health data. Through facts and examples, the video shows the importance of each of the workstream and how they relate and affect humanity as a whole. 

What would we do without data, as a society?

Data and statistics are the key ingredients for scientific advancement, entrepreneurial endeavours, democratic discourse and policymaking.

Finally, the video urges to close the gap between those who produce data and statistics and data users, policymakers, civil society and all the citizens for better decisions and for a better future.
