HDRN Canada Discussion Session: From IDEA to Action: Three New Tools for Health Data Research

The session will introduce three practical tools developed From HDRN Canada’s IDEA Strategy & Action Plan:
🔹 Unlearning Club Curriculum — to build foundational IDEA knowledge and connecting it to administrative health data research.
🔹 IDEA Benchmarking Tool — to help organizations assess current IDEA initiatives and identify opportunities for future action.
🔹 Core Questions Reflection Tool — to prompt researchers and data administrators to consider IDEA from the earliest stages of project design.
Hear the thinking behind each tool, how they were developed and how they can be put to work in real-world settings.
