KEY POINTS
· The adoption of data-driven tools for managing pandemic induced disruption also offers an opportunity to restructure the data ecosystem for managing the disruptions of future that are more likely to be driven by climate change.
· In Indian context, the National Data Sharing and Accessibility Policy (NDSAP), 2012 recognises the importance of data in improving decision making.
· The sharing of data in this platform, apart from others, is further streamlined through the nodality of Chief Data Officer (CDO) in respective ministries.
· There is a need to collect complete datasets required to assess climate risks and vulnerabilities.
· It requires targeted research for designing better questionnaires and identifying new nodes for data collection.
· The data collected has to be made reliable and usable through an accountability framework.
· As the CDO currently doesn’t operate in the same legal framework as a Chief Information officer (CIO) under the Right to Information (RTI) Act, there exists no liability for errors and omissions.
· The National Data Governance Centre was planned to be set up in 2019 for precisely this objective, i.e., holding all public data and establishing guidelines for its management, sharing and monetisation.
· Data is truly useful when it can provide actionable information, and this is particularly needed for climate-action at sub-national levels.
