Overview
The Responsible Data for Children (RD4C) Data Ecosystem Mapping Tool from GovLab intends to help users to identify the systems generating data about children and the key components of those systems. Actors who seek to ensure responsible data for children in their context often need to make decisions without a detailed understanding of the current situation.
This resource provides an understanding of the breadth of data generated and hold about children; assesses data systems’ redundancies or gaps; identifies opportunities for responsible data use.
