We are pleased to invite the research support community, policymakers, and researchers to our upcoming Open Day on 14 November 2024.ย Join us for an insightful event dedicated to promoting Open Data & Open Science and its principles.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the establishment of the CESSDA Main Office in Bergen, the Consortium of European Social Science Data Archives (CESSDA) organised a conference alongside the biannual Service Provider Forum and General Assembly meeting.

On June 6, 2023, we celebrated the launch of the DANS Data Station Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH). We look back on this first year with satisfaction and would like to share this moment.

Every two years, the Dutch Data Prize is awarded to an individual or team that makes research data FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable).It’s now possible to nominate a dataset.

We are happy to present a new updated version of the ODISSEI Portal. In this new version of the Portal we implemented a first prototype of the so-called Data Access Broker (DAB). In addition, more information is available, for instance through ELSST, to improve the search results. The ODISSEI team also worked on a Dutch translation of the user interface. With this new version we introduce an even more user-friendly Portal for the social sciences community. We are happy to explore the different new features and what they mean to you as a user.

Do you manage datasets that require access restrictions? Who would be allowed to access these data? Under what conditions do you grant access? ODISSEI and DANS have designed a survey that aims to find out more about common practices in selecting and managing data access restrictions, and their underlying motivations. We would really appreciate your input!
