Lateral Economics has been working with the Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) to understand the current level of access to Australian public sector data. We’ve developed a short online survey that we’re inviting Australian researchers and research managers to take. Information about the survey is available here: Baseline Researcher Access to Public Sector Data.

This project aims to measure researcher access to Australian public sector data. Results from the survey will identify areas that need further improvement. 

The ARDC is particularly interested in understanding the availability, accessibility and usability of public sector data that for whatever reason, is not open. This might include administrative data, such as that related to the social security system or to health and education services. 

Please complete the survey by Wednesday 28 February 2024 at 11:00 pm (AEDT). It will take 10 to 15 minutes to complete.

You can take the survey via this link:
