Trustworthy Data Practices

Trust is the foundation of any effective data ecosystem. Without it, the process of data sharing slows down, creating friction, delays, and added cost. Trustworthy data practices don’t just foster smoother collaboration—they also help your organisation create social, economic, and environmental value, by creating trust with users. It's therefore important to have a framework to demonstrate the trustworthiness of your organisational data practices in an accessible and easy to understand way.

The Trustworthy Data Practices Guide is a set of 9 data practices that will help:

● Bridge the gap between strategic aims covered in this section and the real world data collection, use and sharing covered in the next.

● Be understood by everyone, enabling them to describe what data practices ‘look like’ for them.

The 9 dimensions of Trustworthy Data Practices at both the organisational and dataset level.

For each of these dimensions the Trustworthy Data Practices Guide provides clear and straightforward indicators to use to assess how trustworthy your data practices are.
