Social Data Strategy (CSDS) Canadian Council on Social Development
The Community Social Data Strategy is a new and exciting project
through which municipalities and community-based organizations can
access and analyze detailed research findings from Statistics Canada
cost effectively. It is an initiative of the Canadian Council on
Social Development in partnership with Statistics Canada.
The
Community Social Data Strategy was created to raise awareness within
the municipal and non-profit sectors about the potential uses of
research data to better understand the social and economic trends
within their communities. The Strategy will also help organizations
share both the costs and the benefits of this vital information.
To this end, the three core purposes of the Community Social Data
Strategy are to:
• Purchase and facilitate access to social data
• Train organizations to analyze and process social data
• Communicate and disseminate the results as widely as possible
