The quotes below are from previous attendees

• "I loved it! I'm quite familiar with the data side, but since I don't have a policy background, I wasn't always aware of the policy histories and political discourse around some of the [poverty] measures. Further, it served as an excellent check-in point and reference for us to review our existing approaches."

• "[The course] covered main poverty data definitions, provided a useful intro to some of the types of data that are useful to a charity campaigning for reductions in child poverty, and gave a great insight into some resources and tools that can be used to gather and analyse that data."
