The Data Science Foundation is committed to improving decision making. We believe that the use of data can improve decision making, but only if the social and environmental impact of decisions are evaluated alongside the knowledge and insight created though analytics. We help our members improve their decision making, to help them to make good decisions today and to make better decisions tomorrow.

Activities and Support for MembersWe help organisations new to evidence-based decision making; collect, process and analyse data. We help them appreciate the meaning hidden in their data so that they can understand more about the landscape in which they operate. We then encourage organisations who already have the expertise to collect data and create insight, to consider the moral implications of their actions. To think about social and environmental consequences of the pursuit of short-term goals.
