About Us


Welcome to OurHealthData

OurHealthData is a nonpartisan platform to learn, engage, and contribute to the conversation on how health data is governed in Canada. As health data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) increasingly influence care, research, and policy, we believe the public should have a voice in how these systems evolve.

Our Mission

To empower Canadians with the knowledge and tools to shape how health data is collected, shared, and used by:

  • Increasing awareness of your rights
  • Supporting public engagement in key policy decisions
  • Mobilizing knowledge through accessible resources and public discussions

Our Vision

We imagine a future where everyone in Canada has a voice in how their health data is used. We want to ensure health data is handled in fair, safe, and innovative ways that helps everyone.

Our Partners and Supporters

This is an initiative from the Upstream Lab, a non-profit research lab committed to improving health equity through research and policy.

As we grow, we look forward to collaborating with future partner organizations and supporters committed to advancing health data governance. If you’re interested in partnering, contact us here.
