New: The Federal Data Forum

By in post on .

The Population Reference Bureau (PRB) has launched the Federal Data Forum — an online community of hundreds of public data stakeholders (groups and individuals) interested in protecting the federal data infrastructure.

PRB is a nonpartisan organization that advocates for the democratization of data.

Members of the forum can share news, resources, and data advocacy strategies related to the Federal Statistical System. The Forum is designed to provide a safe and centralized space for sharing information about the latest threats to federal data, what to do when data are no longer available, and how organizations and individuals can collaborate to protect public data. PRB hopes to bring together researchers, policymakers, advocates, and concerned citizens.
