Empowered Communities in the Digital Age


The session included intermediaries and consultants, and the focus was on exploring ways in which citizens could become active participants in the data narrative. The goal was to help individuals develop the skills to identify and solve their own problems. Through discussions, the participants delved into the meaning of Data Empowerment and explored strategies for achieving Impact@Scale.
​

Here are some key learnings from the session:
  • Blue Dot Thinking puts communities at the center of the data narrative, enabling them to solve their problems with data. Two examples of Blue Dot Thinking in practice are the work done by Foundation for Ecological Security and Shikshalokam.
  • Individuals and organizations that rely heavily on data for decision-making and strategy benefit most from an empowered ability to sense and make sense of data in communities.
  • Data must be relevant, accurate, and up-to-date data for solving community problems.
  • Communities should be owners of the data and know what data was collected and how it is presented to external stakeholders.
  • Organizations can make data easily accessible and understandable for individuals in the community they serve.
  • Capacity-building support for community leaders in data empowerment is urgently needed.
  • Vulnerable communities need to be able to understand universally available data, breaking the trend of data being available but not understandable.
