Data Playbook Toolkit V1
Data is a team sport
Together with 100s of Red Cross Red Crescent staff, volunteers, and partners, we’ve compiled over 120 short exercises, games, scenarios, and handouts to help you and your teams discuss, learn, and share all aspects of the data lifecycle.
The Data Playbook is like a swiss army knife for any organization that wants to strengthen its data capacity. It contains versatile and complrehensive building blocks to support your organization's data journey.

When you are working with data a lot, you might at times forget the end users we are doing it all for in the end. Therefore, the user-centered design taken for the data playbook was a delight and made it a great opportunity to work with and for different stakeholders to create a project that contributes to the work we do.

The Data Playbook consultation was innovative, creative and consultative. These three elements, as part of the training design are embedded and will be reflected in the actual delivery of the training. Representing the Dutch and English-Speaking Delegation, I was happy to be a part of the Data Playbook consultation and participated in a collaborative and team-based environment that honed many perspectives that were syncretized into one global approach. I look forward to the launch of the Data Playbook; the creative learning and collaborative environments in which it was birthed will surely permeate its delivery across the IFRC.

The collaboration experience was fruitful. I have learned the importance of data culture and how the data playbook should be complemented by technical skills support so that day-to-day frustrations from staff can be addressed.
