About Data for Policy Initiative

Launched at the inaugural conference that was hosted by the University of Cambridge in 2015, Data for Policy has been established as an independent initiative to promote “Policy- making in the Big Data Era: Opportunities and Challenges” interdisciplinary and cross-sectorial discussion on the use of Data Science research to enhance government operations and policy-making. The inaugural conference hosted top-level presentations from UK and EU government bodies, prestigious national and international universities, non-profit institutions, and major industrial stakeholders.

We are grateful to the following prestigious institutions • University of Cambridge for supporting this initiative:

– Computer Laboratory, Centre for Science and Policy, • European CommissionCambridge Big Data Strategic Research Initiative, Digital Humanities Network, • Alan Turing InstituteCambridge Public Policy Initiative • Imperial College London • London School of Economics & Political Sciences – Data Science Institute • University College London – Department of Methodology • University of Oxford – Department of Computer Science, UCL Public • Office for National StatisticsPolicy, The Bartlett – UCL Faculty of the Built Environment • Royal Statistical Society– Oxford Internet Institute • New York University • Leiden University • Technopolis Group – The GovLab, Open Governance Research Exchange – Centre for Innovation

Data for Policy 2016 Conference

sectors Data Science is emerging as a key interdisciplinary research field to address major contemporary challenges across . Particular focus on the government sector offers huge potentials to advance citizen services and collective decision-making processes. To reflect the diversity of skills and knowledge required to tackle challenges in this domain, the conference offers an open discussion forum for all stakeholders. Data for Policy 2016 invited individual and/or group submissions from all relevant disciplines and application domains. Topics covered included but were not limited to Government & Policy:the following:

Digital era governance and citizen services, public demand vs. government response, using data in the policy process, open source and open data movements, policy laboratories, citizen expertise for government, public opinion and participation in democratic processes, distributed data bases and data streams, Policy finformation and evidence in policy context, case studies and best practices.or Data & Management:

Data collection, storage, and access; psychology/behaviour of decision; privacy, trust, public rights, free speech, ethics and law; data security/ownership/linkage; provenance, curation, expiration; private/public Data Analysis:sector/non-profit collaboration and partnership, etc.

Computational procedures for data collection, storage, and access; large- scale data processing, dealing with biased/imperfect/uncertain data, human interaction with data, statistical/computational models, technical challenges, communicating Methodologies:results, visualisation, etc.

Qualitative/quantitative/mixed methods, gaps in theory and practice, secondary data analysis, web scraping, randomised controlled trials, sentiment analysis, Bayesian approaches and graphical models, biologically inspired models, real-time and historical data processing, simulation and modeling, small area estimation, correlation & Data Sources:causality based models, and other relevant methods.

Government administrative data, official statistics, commercial and non- profit data, user-generated web content (blogs, wikis, discussion forums, posts, chats, tweets, podcasting, pins, digital images, video, audio files, advertisements, etc.), search engine data, data gathered by connected people and devices (e.g. wearable technology, mobile devices, Internet of Things), tracking data (including GPS/geolocation data, traffic and other transport sensor data, CCTV images etc.,), satellite and aerial imagery, and other relevant daPolicy/Application Domains:ta sources.

Security, health, cities, public administration, economy, science and innovation, finance, energy, environment, social policy areas (education, migration, etc.) and other relevant domains.
