Day 2 of #ADRUKConf25 is off to a strong start!
We began with an inspiring ministerial address from Rt Hon Mark Drakeford MS, highlighting Wales’ leadership in administrative data research and evidence-informed policymaking - and his own role in shaping these spaces.
Up for our final keynote - Dr Nisha da Silva from Ministry of Justice explores the groundbreaking MoJ Data First programme, funded by ADR UK, and how it’s delivering real progress in improving justice outcomes.
#ADRUKConf25
Another project is using ECHILD to explore attainment outcomes in primary school for children with neurodisability.
The research highlights how the period before school entry provides a valuable opportunity for early intervention to support these children.
#ADRUKConf25
ECHILD is an ADR UK flagship dataset which can be used to better understand how education affects children's health, and how health affects children's education.
