Session: Building and Maintaining Public Trust in Data Sharing
In order to build and maintain trust related to data sharing, we need to engage with and listen to members of the public AND act on what we hear. This talk will present the findings of qualitative research studies that describe the conditions under which members of the public supported the use of health data for R&D. The talk will conclude with examples of activities that use advice from the members of the public to increase the transparency and trustworthiness data sharing and data use.

Key Takeaways
- Members of the public generally support their data being used for research, providing that privacy is protected and risks are managed.
- You can't have trust without transparency, and you can't have transparency without plain language.
- It is important that there is a perceived public benefit (not just commercial benefit) when person-level data are shared and used by external organizations.
