“I Want to Say ‘Yes,’ But…”— A Webinar for Lawyers Advising Data-Sharing Efforts

“I Want to Say ‘Yes,’ But…”— A Webinar for Lawyers Advising Data-Sharing Efforts

Often, a data-sharing project doesn’t come to an attorney’s attention until the attorney is asked to draft or review a data-sharing agreement. By then, the project proponents are invested in the project’s success, making it difficult to then advise them that the law does not permit sharing the data.

But might it? Could you help recraft the data-sharing plan to fit within the constraints of the law? If you had been involved earlier in the project’s planning, would you have had the opportunity to address the legal issues at that time?

The Network for Public Health Law invites you to a webinar for lawyers by lawyers who have navigated these data-sharing waters.

Using the resource, Pathways to Yes: A legal framework for achieving data sharing for health, well-being, and equity, recently released by the Network for Public Health Law and Data Across Sectors for Health (DASH), Network attorneys will present strategies for navigating away from a data-sharing culture of “no, you can’t” and toward one of “yes, we can.”

This webinar compliments an earlier webinar designed for data-sharing project managers and advocates who want to understand the legal framework around data sharing in order to work effectively with attorneys to develop data-sharing plans.

Getting from the Data Sharing Land of No onto Pathways to Yes: Navigating Data Sharing Projects for Non-Attorneys

Data sharing, particularly cross-sector data sharing, is easier said than done. Inflexible and out-of-touch data laws and a lack of a replicable data sharing framework can result in a data sharing proposal’s untimely demise.

This Network for Public Health Law webinar will provide an exploration of a new structured approach to successful data sharing initiatives, as outlined in a recently released resource from the Network for Public Health Law and Data Across Sectors for Health (DASH): Pathways to Yes: A legal framework for achieving data sharing for health, well-being, and equity.

It is designed for entities that want to share data but don’t know how or where to begin the process; as well as those that have run into obstacles in their data-sharing planning; including the “culture of ‘no’,” a factor that inhibits or prohibits data sharing based on an incomplete understanding of when and how laws (particularly health data privacy laws) permit data sharing.
