Community Data Flash Review

A flash review of collection, storage, and sharing strategies for community data. The findings found there is very little Saskatchewan-specific research addressing the data collected by community organizations in a Saskatchewan context. Drawing on both research and practice related to community-data storage and mobilization, we demonstrate that the development of data tools for Saskatchewan community organizations would enhance the benefits associated with data sharing and access while minimizing the risk. This project was supported by a working group made up of Chuk Plante, Brea Loewenberger, Taryn McLachlan, and Rachel Loewen Walker and supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council.
