Open hour SSH: live Q&A

Meet us at the Open Hour every Monday from 10:00 to 11:00 CEST for the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) community.
The Open Hour is a Q&A on Open Science, data storage and Research Data Management.

  • What data can I deposit at DANS?
  • How do I make my data FAIR?
  • Can I share data that holds personal information?
  • What meta data standards do I have to use?
  • How do I store video data sustainably?

All these questions and more can be asked live during the Open Hour.

Based on user feedback and the input from experts, DANS released an updated version of the Qualitative Data Guide to provide better guidance for making qualitative research data reusable.  

This year, CESSDA will celebrate its 50th anniversary. DANS has been a partner from the start. We reflect on how CESSDA and DANS enriched each other’s work in the past year.

2025 marked a year of important milestones for DANS. We celebrated our twentieth anniversary, witnessed the results of many years of collaboration in national and international projects, and continued to strengthen our infrastructure, services, and support for researchers and data professionals.
