How to Create a Strong Legal Framework for Data-Sharing

During this presentation, Deja Kemp and Amy Hawn Nelson from the Actionable Intelligence for Social Policy (AISP) discussed a successful framework for developing and implementing processes to support intradepartmental data access, integration, and use. This work, 2019-present, utilizes participatory methods to support a new legal framework and data governance approach across a large health and human service agency. To date, they have co-created a department wide Data Sharing Guidebook; processes for developing high value data asset inventories; parameters for legal use; and clearly defined department-wide data governance—all operationalized within the established legal framework.
