6 ESRC Background and Introduction
7 Distribution of ESRC funding 2012/13
8 2011 Delivery Plan Strategic Priorities 2011 Economic Performance and Sustainable Growth Influencing Behaviour and Informing Interventions Vibrant and Fair Society Refresh February 2013 What have we achieved so far? Are there gaps remaining to be filled? Are there new opportunities to be seized? Partnerships and collaboration Major element of the Plan Attracting around 20m of additional funding each year Co-production ensures research is better placed to inform policy and practice
9 ESRC Data Landscape Longitudinal Studies British Household Panel Study & Understanding Society LS, SLS & NILS Birth cohorts (1958, 1970, Millennium) Life Study Ageing studies (ELSA) CLOSER Integration of data services via the UK Data Service Access to census and other datasets Safe access to sensitive data
10 ESRC Data Landscape National Centre for Research Methods (NCRM) Methodological development and training Secondary Data Analysis Initiative (SDAI) 58 projects awarded (ageing, financial affairs, families, etc.) Doctoral Training Centres (DTCs) Quantitative (and other) quotas Quantitative Methods Initiative Undergraduate to postgraduate pipeline (with HEFCE and Nuffield Foundation)
11 Capital Funding & Big Data Chancellor s Autumn Statement included 600m for science, research and innovation, 484m for RCUK Funds to support the development of innovative technologies across eight areas, including big data Draws from RCUK Strategic Framework for Capital Investment (published Nov 2012) ESRC earmarked 64m to support packages of activity within the big data theme
12 The Big Data Landscape
13 Why are such data of interest to social scientists? Their large scale means that rare events which can be captured Re-using existing data is cheaper than creating new data for research Some types of data are international they are not generated via national processes They can often be combined with data collected by more traditional methods, to facilitate triangulation and/or to enhance such data

16 Big Data Network
17 Big Data Network
18 Phase 1: Administrative Data Research Network (ADRN) Four Administrative Data Research Centres (ADRCs): England, Wales, Scotland and N Ireland An Administrative Data Service for the network A UK-wide Governing Board for the network Researcher training and accreditation Safe settings Public engagement strategy Key partnerships with National Statistical Authorities
19 Phase 2: Business and Local Government Data Research Centres A national resource to facilitate access to business and local government data Primary aim to contribute to the development of data infrastructure, and promotion of existing infrastructure, around business and local government data through collaboration with data owners and to provide a service to enable access to that data for the wider research community.
20 Phase 2: Business and Local Government Data Research Centres opportunities Opportunities Training and Capacity Building Opportunities Boosting Data Insights and Organisational Decisions Flagging Corporate Social Responsibilities and Creating Shared Value Preserving legacy data and informing decisions on future big data analytics
21 Phase 2: Business and Local Government Data Research Centres challenges Challenges Types of Data Data Owners Privacy and Public Perceptions Preserving legacy data and informing decisions on future big data analytics
22 Phase 2: Business and Local Government Data Research Centres - Objectives Provide services to enable academic research access to business and/or local government data Collaborate with data owners and encourage the participation of further data owners through active engagement with private and/or local government organisations Act as centres of expertise in data relevant to particular business sectors and local authority domains or around cross-cutting themes
23 Phase 2: Business and Local Government Data Research Centres - Objectives Conduct and stimulate an original programme of research in at least one key area of social science using the data made available, and exploring ways to improve access to and analysis of that data, as well as opportunities for data linkage Develop a programme of knowledge exchange that will ensure data owners have access to the expertise to realise the opportunities that social science can bring to their organization
24 Phase 2: Business and Local Government Data Research Centres - Objectives Develop a programme of capacity building and training activities Work in collaboration with other Centres, other elements of the Big Data Network as well as the UK Data Service (UKDS) and Administrative Data Service (ADS) as appropriate to encourage the harmonization of services and standards and avoid duplication of effort.
