Health data in Canada, health equity and an introduction to Health Data Research Network Canada
Presenter: Dr. Kimberlyn McGrail is a Professor in the UBC School of Population and Public Health and Centre for Health Services and Policy Research, and Scientific Director of Population Data BC and Health Data Research Network Canada. Her research interests are quantitative policy evaluation and all aspects of population data science. She was part of the Expert Advisory Group for the pan-Canadian Health Data Strategy and is currently a member of the Global Partnership for AI as part of the Data Governance Working Group. Summary: The 3rd report from the advisory group for the Pan-Canadian Health Data Strategy laid out ten recommendations to improve health data in Canada, starting with a commitment to a Health Data Charter. The principles of that Charter align well with the ambitions of Health Data Research Network Canada (HDRN Canada) and its member organizations. This talk will describe the Charter and then focus on HDRN Canada’s mission to support multi-jurisdictional data use that improves health equity for everyone in Canada. It will describe information, training and other resources available to plan studies and request data, and provide detail on how are ensuring our commitments to inclusion, diversity, equity, accessibility as well as Indigenous research and data sovereignty.
