Our data strategy
The NEMA Data Strategy (2023-25) (1577 PDF KB) underpins our vision to make evidence-based decisions. We make decisions across the emergency management continuum. From risk reduction and prevention to response and throughout recovery. It's important that these decisions help create a better outcome for all Australians. Our Data Strategy sets out our commitment to:
- invest in data
- mature the way we use and share data, and
- deliver against NEMA’s Statement of Strategic Intent 2023.
A key element of our Data Strategy is to build strong data governance, facilitating data discovery, data lifecycle management, data sharing and the creation of quality data products. We are currently developing good data management policies. These policies will support our use of data science to manage and create new analytical models. Following Australian Government advice, we are exploring ethical and safe artificial intelligence.
We value our strong collaboration with our stakeholders across all sectors. This collaboration allows us to bring together data that supports all Australians. For more information, read the NEMA Data Strategy 2023-2025.
