Information is Power

This event was funded and facilitated by:

The Information is Power series over 3 months was designed to develop the capacity of the community services sector – individually and collectively – to turn data into information that has power. It responds to the direction proposed by participants in the first session in April and considered:
  • what data to collect and what we have access to
  • how to use the data to tell our stories.

The sessions were in two formats:
  • A breakfast session to discuss the topic, find out what is new, identify issues, find common ground, share solutions and generate ideas to go forward
  • A workshop session that mentors participants to apply the concepts in a practical way to their own context – a skill development session

Facilitators were Dr Marion Norton and Brentyn Parkin
Invited speakers have a passion for information and expertise in collecting and using it.
