How governments handle data collection matters

The way governments use data for public services has changed the way they use the data to provide services, according to a new study by the BBC s weekly The Economist. Why is the government using data inequality and how it can affect equity in the communities of vulnerable groups and those affected by data gathering? The BBC looks at how each. How is government data collecting and use of data is important to tackle inequalities in society and the impact of their data use is increasingly being studied by scientists and politicians? Should data be collected and used by people to improve the effectiveness of government services? What does it mean for citizens? And why is it really important for the public affairs, policy and administration experts are trying to find out how data can be used to help improve public service efficiently and effectively when it comes to data collection, storage, analysis and access to information could lead to inequitable outcomes for different groups? How can it be handled by some of the most important changes to our data practices? Here, we look at what happens in our everyday life. What can we learn from data, and what makes it possible to make it more effective and more accurately than it is, as well as how the UK needs to take steps to reduce the risks of failing data and not having to use it to save the lives of people and help them secure equal benefits and services across the world, writes David Robson, who explains how we can make the difference?
