Building Data Equity #APHA2024

Fostering Partnerships Between Community Based Organizations & Public Health

On October 28 from 12:30-2pm CT, RWJF’s Transforming Public Health Data Initiative hosted a session at this year’s American Public Health Association Annual Meeting in Minneapolis. The session focused on building data equity and the importance of fostering partnerships between community-based organizations and public health.

Marynia Kolak, Keon Gilbert, Erica Walker, MSc, ScD, and moderator George Hobor shared insights on building data capacity, improving data accessibility, and prioritizing community voice and engagement in the data collection process.

It was a phenomenal conversation, and we look forward to future collaborations! Dr. Kolak’s slides are below. Check out these resources mentioned in the panel from HEROP:
