UCLA and Arizona State University have launched a new initiative "that will revolutionize advocacy and policymaking in the United States by equipping Latino leaders with cutting-edge data analysis tools and skills," the universities announced in a press release this week.
The Latino Data Hub (LDH) Action Lab, coordinated by the UCLA Latino Policy and Politics Institute (UCLA LPPI) and Arizona State University Center for Latina/os and American Politics Research (CLAPR), will focus on instructing policymakers to use U.S. Census data to inform policy decisions in critical areas such as health, education, housing, and employment.
