Why data rights matter

This online course was developed by Oxfam and provides you an overview of why Data Rights are so important to humanitarian and development work. Processing, using and sharing data form an essential part of our work. Mishandling data can have serious consequences for those concerned, for ourselves and for our organisations.

This course gives you:

  • An overview of why Data Rights are so important to humanitarian and development work
  • Practical modules related to the responsible data lifecycle
  • Links other Data Rights related resource

This course is designed for new and experienced, local, national and international humanitarian aid providers, including senior managers, practitioners, administrators and support staff, because we all interact with data and need to recognize the importance of keeping data safe if we are to do no harm.
