Description

As we enter the final decade of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, we have an opportunity to accelerate our progress towards this goal, by more rigorously collecting, analyzing and applying good-quality data to shape programmes that can bring us closer to ending access to digital divide in all its forms. Open data is a critical enabler. The session will bring together the open data community to learn, share, plan and collaborate on the future of open data in the context of COVID-19. The unique nature of the event is to enable participants from various interdisciplinary backgrounds to define strategies that advance open data globally and locally, with the vision that attendees will take their new insights back to their home institutions to grow a vibrant open data community. The session will include Keynote addresses, Q&A sessions and networking breaks

Type: Virtual workshop Length: 60 minutes Date:10th September Duration: once Language: English

Objectives The workshop will address questions like; Opportunities and challenges of Open data in different communities Motivations of good data stewardship: champions or advisors? How to get people involved and community building.

Presenters bio Cassandra Gould Van Praag The main focus of my role is to generate opportunities for the research community to actively participate in and contribute to the open science infrastructure of Oxford Neuroscience, made available by awards to the Wellcome Centre for Integrative Neuroimaging (WIN), the MRC Brain Network Dynamics Unit (BNDU) and the NIHR Oxford Health Biomedical Research Centre (BRC). A large focus of this work is centred on supporting engagement with the WIN Open Neuroimaging Project.
