HNPW 2023: Activating Adoption of Data Responsibility in Humanitarian Action
Channel: OCHA Centre for Humanitarian Data
Date: 2023-05-08

While steady progress has been made to implement data responsibility at the system-wide level of a humanitarian response, challenges remain to operationalize it at the organization level, requiring a new approach to facilitate the implementation of guidance by individual organizations. The goal of this HNPW 2023 session was to shed light on constraints for data responsibility implementation, discuss potential new tactics to activate adoption at the organization level, and discuss how feasible these are for organizations across the humanitarian sector. The session was organized by the co-chairs of the Data Responsibility Working Group: DRC, IOM, UNHCR and the OCHA Centre for Humanitarian Data.
