The Canadian Cultural Diversity Dashboard
The Canadian Cultural Diversity Dashboard (CCDD) is an interactive online data visualization dashboard meant to elicit insights regarding the diversity of publics consuming and creating culture in Canada. CCDD supports policy, planning, communication and decision-making within Canada’s Department of Canadian Heritage (DCH). Understanding the needs and interests of diverse populations is required to design effective services and programs; to address inequity; support cultural practice, identities moreover to understand links between demographic well-being and culture. The complex, scalable, heterogenous, and multivariate data sets that underlie the CCDD are sourced from survey and census data available through Statistics Canada [1, 2]. Demographic data includes factors such as age, geographic location, education level, literacy levels, immigration status, linguistic background and languages spoken, race, Indigenous identity, disability, and gender. Each demographic segment is analyzed according to cultural consumption and creative expression across a breadth of disciplines from literary, visual, to performing arts.
