Description
Facilitation of Stakeholder Engagement Events supporting the Office for
National Statistics (ONS) and Government Statistical Service (GSS)
Harmonisation team's discovery phase toward establishing harmonised
standards for sex and gender identity data collection across
government. The harmonisation of principles ensures consistency in
definition and classification used in data collection across the
Government.
Discovery phase of work encompasses the:
• Designing and facilitating of 5 Regional Stakeholder Events
(London, Cardiff, Manchester, Edinburgh, and Belfast) aimed at
gathering diverse perspectives from data users, collectors, processors,
and respondents to inform research on user and respondent needs.
• Recognising the potentially divergent viewpoints on these topics,
the facilitation will focus on identifying sufficient common ground to
progress ONS's user research.
• Deliverables include:
o Two one-hour design sessions with ONS in March to develop the
agenda and facilitation approach
o One 30-minute preparatory session with the team and Director
General, and o Facilitation of five 3-hour events (each followed by a 30-
minute debrief).
