The Problem and Impact
Specific data collection with a focus on accountability was new to the client. The challenge was to implement a system that provides actionable insights and visualizations, requiring a strategic technical partner to deliver an effective solution.
The Solution
Dataphyte, through the use of Goloka and other technical platforms, is gathering data on all major mining sites. This initiative involves identifying process connections of beneficial ownership data access platforms to generate critical ownership profiles.
Implementation Strategy
Dataphyte employs Goloka, a data collection solution, to gather on-the-ground information regarding livelihood, human rights, and the socioeconomic impacts of mining on the residents of targeted mining communities. Field monitors receive comprehensive training on using the Goloka tool to ensure accuracy and reliability in data collection.
