Data quality strategy and embed data collection standards

The Data Insights Program is advancing data governance and standardised data collection practices to strengthen the service sector’s capacity to collect, interpret, and utilise data effectively. These efforts aim to drive sector-wide adoption of data resources that are inclusive of the diverse needs and experiences of target groups.

Significant progress has been made, including consultations on the Data Quality Strategy and Data Governance Framework, which are being finalised for release. Consultation on the Data Collection Standards is ongoing and remains focused on refining the standards in response to stakeholder feedback. This ensures the data collected across the domestic, family, and sexual violence system directly informs the delivery of trauma-informed, survivor-centred wellbeing services for victim-survivors.
