The erosion of trust in data affects equity in policies. The team at the Race, Prosperity, and Inclusion (RPII) Initiative of Brookings seeks to build trust in data collection to strengthen sustainable associations and improve community well-being.

Transparency in data collection and dissemination, along with collaborations with community organizations, are essential for rebuilding trust in this area.
