Data in the ATL - Visualizing Our Challenges and Turning Data into Knowledge In-Person
Guest speaker: Ginneh Baugh, Vice President, Strategy & Knowledge Development, United Way of Greater Atlanta
Join us as Ginneh Baugh from the United Way of Greater Atlanta discusses the development of the Child Well-Being Index, a collection of data and interactive map that the community can use to assess how its children, the families that support them, and the community that surrounds them, are doing. Ginneh's areas of expertise are in turning data into knowledge, using evaluation and program outcome measurement to develop better strategies, and communicating results to champion improvements for low-income children and families. She earned her Master's in Public Policy from Johns Hopkins University and B.A. in African American Studies from the University of Georgia.
#DataInTheATL is a speaker series hosted by Georgia State University Library that connects the university community with prominent members of the Atlanta data community. Invited speakers show the importance of data science in making informed decisions and how they use data analysis and expertise in their daily work.
Location: CURVE, Georgia State University Library, 2nd floor of Library South, 103 Decatur Street SE, Atlanta, GA 30303. Map it.
