●   Data  literacy  helps  in  analytically producing solutions  to  problems  that  help  people  develop  critical
                  thinking skills. It enables user to tackle complex problems and derive meaningful relevance.
              ●   Data literacy fuels innovation by providing tools and techniques to explore data from different perspectives.
                  It helps in innovating to meet the requirements of emerging trends and market demands.


                       Impact of Data Literacy


              Data literacy has an immense impact on various aspects of society, like business, education, healthcare, and
              public policy, as given below:
              ●   Business: It can lead to growth and innovation and help companies maintain their competitive edge in a
                  tech-focused world. Data literate employees can effectively analyse data to gain insights into market trends,
                  customer behaviours, and operational performance.
              ●   Education: It empowers the teaching-learning process. In the field of education, data literacy is essential for
                  both students and educators. Students can better understand and analyse information, while educators can
                  use data to tailor instruction and identify areas where students may need additional support. Students can
                  engage more deeply with course material, particularly in STEM fields.
              ●   Healthcare: Healthcare professionals can use data to improve diagnostics, treatment plans, and patient monitoring.
                  Hospitals and clinics can use data to optimise resource allocation, reduce waste, and improve operational efficiency.
              ●   Public policy: Policymakers can use data to design, implement, and evaluate policies more effectively. Data literacy
                  promotes transparency, allowing the public to hold policymakers accountable through data-driven evidence.
              ●   Social equity: Data literacy can highlight disparities in areas such as education, healthcare, and employment and
                  can promote social equity. It helps ensure that resources are distributed effectively to areas of greatest need.
