*Navigating Data for Equitable, Sustainable Communities*
Well-being indicators are used throughout the world to help communities
evaluate health, equity and sustainability and to develop a roadmap to
improve community conditions. The 2016 Impact Summit
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001gJiKVQ1ZTMjhKG-wcmK-G26laseeevE3gxowAm56fgjH…>
will focus on innovative efforts and provide opportunities to exchange
knowledge and build on good practices. Are you involved in a campaign,
initiative or activity that is transforming how indicators are used at the
local, regional or national level to navigate toward more equitable and
sustainable communities?
We are accepting proposals linked to our proposal tracks:
- *Measuring Well-being*: These sessions will detail tools, methods and
technologies for selecting impactful measures and target populations,
collecting useful data, assuring data accuracy and consistency, and/or
assessing the progress of communities.
- *Connecting Communities*: These sessions will present promising
innovations that initiated and sustain collaborations with and among the
public, policy makers makers, and other stakeholders, such as public policy
initiatives, legislation, innovative partnerships, public outreach,
participatory approaches to governance, effective reporting methods using a
variety of media, etc.
- *Impacting Well-being*: Practices based on sound evidence that make
measurable and sustainable improvements in the well-being of a community;
best practices or models for moving from data to action; initiatives that
used indicators to reduce inequities and improve resilience in local or
regional communities.
- *Sustaining our Work*: Tools and practices that build internal
organizational resilience and financial sustainability necessary to make an
impact on the community.
Proposals are due April 15.
