From abstract: "Rethinking Personal Data: Strengthening Trust examines
how the appropriate use of personal data can create enormous value for
governments, organizations and individuals. Produced in collaboration with The
Boston Consulting Group, the report provides a multistakeholder perspective on
how the potential value of personal data can be unlocked.
The report aims to foster dialogue around some of the key questions that
need to be resolved to ensure long-term and sustainable value creation. Who
owns personal data? How can privacy be protected? What is the role of context
in setting permissions? How can organizations be held accountable? What is the
role of regulators? It outlines concrete steps that stakeholders can
take, focusing on three areas: upgrading protection and security, agreeing on
rights and responsibilities for using data based on context, and driving
accountability and enforcement. The report concludes with a call for leaders to
work together to achieve a coordinated yet decentralized approach to this
global challenge." Read more
