Workshop: Research Data Management in the Time of the GDPR

18 October 2018

On December 11th the Workshop “Research Data Management in the Time of the GDPR” will take place at DANS in The Hague. This workshop will provide an overview of how to manage, document, store and safeguard research data by implementing good data management.

In particular, the workshop focuses on the ethical and legal issues in data sharing and handling confidential information in the light of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The workshop is based on the online Data Management Expert Guide which was developed by the Consortium of European Social Sciences Data Archives (CESSDA ERIC).

The workshop will start with an introduction to Research Data Management (RDM) and the use of the online Data Management Expert Guide, followed by a presentation on the legal and ethical aspects of RDM, given by Dr. Libby Bishop, Coordinator for International Data Infrastructures at the GESIS Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences (Germany). Then participants will have the opportunity to work on assignments in small groups focusing on ethical and legal aspects of RDM such as informed consent. The afternoon session will focus on examples from the Netherlands and there will be room for discussion during an interactive question and answer session with an panel of (international) experts.
