If you work or volunteer for a small charity or social enterprise, this session is relevant for you whether you are new to impact management and data collection or already have systems in place.

When planning your data collection, there are two overarching considerations: are your data collection and management practices ethical, and are they inclusive? Are your plans appropriate and are your respondents representative of the diversity of users you support?

There are numerous moral and practical challenges when it comes to developing data collection and management practices that are ethical and inclusive. This Learning Lab provides a space for you to explore some of these challenges and options available to you. It will provide an overview of ethical principles in data collection, management and analysis as well as an introduction to inclusive data collection practices.

There will be breakout sessions to help you explore some the specific challenges you are facing and/or share some of the approaches that you used.

The session will close with a Q&A where attendees will get the opportunity to ask questions and to troubleshoot.

This session is co-delivered with Dr. Christine Goodall, Coordinator of the HEAR Equality and Human Rights Network.
