Why Discuss Data Culture?
Public statistics is more than just the application of statistical methods. In this workshop, you will become familiar with how different societal interests influence public statistics and how, in turn, information shapes public discourse.
Throughout the workshop, you will develop a fundamental understanding of data literacy and data culture, catering not only to data professionals but also to all users of data and statistics. We will explore the questions of how conventions are at the heart of the co-production of statistics and society โ and what decision-making processes drive them. We will approach the answer by taking concrete case studies and questions from the current political landscape and trying to answer them with the best possible quantifications.

๐กย Session 2: Values, Ethics, and What They Mean for Quality

๐ย LMUย Munich
How are Values and Ethics Linked to Data Quality?
As with other products, public statistics aims to optimize the design (form) of the use (function) of the products (โform follows functionโ). In this respect, it is about more than just the application of statistical methods. Rather, the focus must be on the questions that society wants to have answered with solid statistics for its current, pressing, and conflict-laden issues. Other aspects then play a role here, namely whether politics values and finances this infrastructure, whether corresponding data literacy is available in the population at large, and so on.
In this workshop, you will gain a basic understanding of why ethics and values play such an important role when using data. You will get to know different ethical principles and discuss if they are still up-to-date with current developments and new data sources. By doing so, we will explore the relationship between quality of information, integrity, and governance.

๐ Session 3: Data 4 Policy: The Evolution from Statistical to Data
๐ Thursday, October 12, 2023

๐ LMU Munich
Letโs discuss the future of data, statistics, and society
New data sources and data science methods open up substantial opportunities for research and for improving statistics. However, the integration of traditional and newer methods requires more than the merging of methodology and technology.
In this workshop, you will discuss the differences between data-driven and question-driven approaches. We will explore in which places of society data plays an important role and how it is regulated. By this, we will expand on the triangle of data, facts, and policy. Letโs discuss the future of data and society!
