In the digital era of the digital economy, the significance of data space cannot be overstated, serving as the foundational infrastructure for data storage, management, and analysis across businesses, governments, and individuals. It not only facilitates data-driven decision-making but also enables personalized experiences and tailored services, thereby fueling innovation and value creation, and fostering collaboration through data sharing.

In today’s increasingly digitized world, the effective management and utilization of data are imperative for governments globally. Nonetheless, many developing countries encounter obstacles in harnessing data’s potential for informing policymaking and addressing societal challenges. The Data Space project aims to bridge this gap by providing support and resources to government officials in these nations, enhancing their capabilities in data management and utilization.

Data space plays a pivotal role in propelling the development of industries and diverse sectors by offering indispensable support for data-driven decision-making, personalized services, and product customization. Moreover, it catalyzes innovation and value generation while nurturing collaboration through data sharing, thereby exerting a significant impact on industrial growth and economic advancement.

Under the auspices of the United Nations framework, the Global Data Space is committed to driving data empowerment across industries and national economies, while serving society at large. Upholding a neutral stance, we are dedicated to furnishing an open, impartial, and transparent data space, providing technical empowerment and support for various sectors. By fostering global cooperation and collaboration, we endeavor to establish a cross-border data-sharing platform, contributing positively to global sustainable development efforts.

The activities of the project include:

Data Governance Training and Guidance: Organizing training sessions and providing guidance on data governance for government officials and businesses, introducing principles, processes, and best practices to help them establish and implement effective data governance frameworks.

Data Privacy and Security Training: Conducting training on data privacy and security to educate government officials and businesses on how to protect and manage sensitive data, ensuring the security and privacy of data during storage, transmission, and processing.
