The Workshop will target participants who have first-hand knowledge of programmatic priorities of UN funds, agencies and programmes, and the challenges related to leveraging traditional as well as emerging data sources. Two individuals per agency will be invited to participate: One representative should be familiar with programmatic challenges and/or policy advisory functions and have a non-technical understanding of how data innovation initiatives can help solve these challenges; the other participant could be drawn from the data/statistics community, IT, innovation or partnerships communities. The participants will also include individuals from various external organizations, including government, academia, private sector and not-for-profit who are working together with UN counterparts on data innovation.
