National Data Sharing Policy (NDSP)
Data availability is vital for the digital economy’s growth, supported by experts, technology, and policies. It includes collecting, validating, processing, and using data while ensuring privacy, trust, safety, and economic value.
Recognising the importance of data access in both public and private sectors, along with the general public, remains limited. This includes data sharing, governance, its role in economic growth, and fostering a conducive data ecosystem.
The key question that calls for our attention is how the data is used and protected.
