How well the public understands data has a major influence on the successful management of pandemics and other health crises. Data related to Covid-19 has been extremely abundant but not always well understood by citizens, sometimes resulting in confusion and/or resistance to public health measures. As data’s importance in understanding the world and decision making has grown, they have increasingly become subject to distortion and manipulation from their original meaning, therefore propagating erroneous information.
The aim of the project is to contribute to a better understanding of data in the future, which can be achieved by improving data literacy (reception side) and by presenting and explaining data in ways that facilitate its understanding (production side).
