Abstract
The Forum on Advancing the Science and Practice of Actionable Public Health Data Dashboards was held on June 3-4, 2025 on the campus of Rutgers University-New Brunswick in New Jersey. The primary objective of this convening was to advance the science and practice of actionable public health dashboards by laying the foundations of a framework and a research agenda for guiding design, implementation, assessment, and sustainability of actionable dashboards. The framework is intended to synergize future research, practice, and public investments in public health data dashboards by delineating key dimensions, constructs, mechanisms, processes, and corollaries (both desirable and undesirable) of a collaborative, user-centered, and adaptive process of designing actionable data dashboards. These proceedings summarize major points and key insights generated by participants and ends with a call-to-action. Meeting agenda and participants biographies are included.
