The initial podcasts recorded in 2023, were solely ADR Scotland, who link datasets of administrative data from Education, Health, Social Care, the Environment, Housing, Community safety & Justice.

· Their Datapod podcast lets you hear from our leading academics, data scientists and data analysts involved in researching Scotland’s public sector data covering Health, Nursing, Social Care, Children, Education, Crime, Justice, Safety, Environmental and Housing sectors, in order to complete our administrative data research, to deliver data driven insights to government departments, charities and communities to inform them and provide support to encourage policymakers to amend regulations to improve people's lives and to benefit society.

· With unprecedented access to the partners within ADR Scotland, namely SCADR and the Scottish Government - their podcasts will either offer you a '10 minute Research Update' or invite you to join 'Datapod discussions' from leading academics, data scientists and experts from a particular sector, who together are transforming how public sector data in Scotland is curated, accessed and explored - so they can deliver data driven insights that highlights issues affecting communities and encouraging policymakers to amend regulations in order to benefit society.

STAY TUNED in 2024...to hear more podcasts from ADR UK REGIONAL MEMBERS.
