Our argument

The way data is collected and used does not work for people or our communities

Giving us more information and controls is not fixing this problem

We are connected by data – our data is about other people too

There is a better way

Communities should be involved in making decisions about data

Organisations should use participation to build trust and reduce risks

People should have a meaningful say over data

We can change things

We can change how we talk about data

We can change how organisations make decisions about data

We can change how data is regulated
