UCLA Data Equity Center Series: Applying a Data Equity Lens to Questionnaire Design

Описание: Use a data equity lens to increase the quality of your data and research. High-quality, representative data is achieved through the principles of data equity which engage community to inform and improve the project lifecycle.

The UCLA Data Equity Center (DEC) has launched a series of training courses for applying an equity lens to research and data projects. The series is designed to provide overviews and practical examples for implementation of each concept.

This presentation by Market Decisions (MDR) provides a comprehensive overview of how to apply a data equity lens to questionnaire and discussion guide design, emphasizing inclusive, community-engaged, and bias-reducing practices to improve the accuracy, accessibility, and fairness of data collection.

Housed at the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research, the DEC was launched in 2022 to focus on equity in all aspects of the design, collection, production, and dissemination of population health data.

A shared learning and training hub for building fairness in data across all health-related sectors, the DEC provides technical assistance, expertise, and resources to increase the representation in and access to data for marginalized populations.
