Understanding what a database is, why your organisation needs it and how to build one is key to your information architecture journey, to the health and sustainability of your data and to the success towards reaching your final analysis and advocacy goals.
The Databases and Data Modelling Theory manual presents key information about Uwazi databases, utilised to store and systematise human rights information, and offers guidance throughout a data modelling journey to ensure that a data collection process is more efficient, organised and tailored to the goals of your information management project.
The Introduction to Databases and Data Modelling workbook serves as a practical guide for building a data model. It is to be used together with the Databases manual. The focus is on enhancing data collection, processing, and analysis workflows to effectively monitor and advocate for human rights.
Module 2 complements Module 1: Introduction to Documentation Theory.
