The Data Use and Capacity priority is focused on the following efforts:
Data analysis: The committee is a resource for MNP20 policy and project committees that are analyzing data in their work, providing expert insights and feedback on the data analysis that these committees are conducting. The data committee also has, for larger projects, primary responsibility for gathering, reviewing, and providing analysis of data.
Identifying trends: The committee shares observations, insights, and recommendations about data findings and trends that would benefit from further analysis, action, and/or prioritization by MNP20.
Championing data use: The committee is an advocate for the growth of data-informed practice in MNP20’s work and across member organizations, and for strategizing ways to expand our capacity to engage with data across the state.
Statewide data strategy: The committee has the ability to make ongoing recommendations to MNP20—and its member organizations—to strengthen Minnesota’s research and action strategy. In addition, the committee may provide recommendations and strategies for continuing to strengthen Minnesota’s strong and effective data privacy practices.
