The relevance of these practices lies in fostering a learning environment that mirrors the evolving landscape of scientific research. By embracing Open Science in higher education\, instructors can teach students not only theoretical knowledge but also practical skills in transparent\, accessible\, and reproducible research. This approach includes employing open science practices such as filling out a pre-registration form\, making students aware that sharing materials and data is helpful\, and highlighting the importance of replications. As higher education institutions increasingly adopt these practices\, they prepare students for a future where open and collaborative research is the norm\, bridging the gap between academic training and real-world scientific practices. Lastly\, current students seem to be open to open science practices anyways – creating a winning setting.

Different groups – like researchers\, the government\, companies\, or organizations – may collect data. They could own it\, share it\, publish it online\, or combine it. This year’s Love Data Week wants us to ask ‘Whose Data is it Anyway?’ This helps us remember to think about where the data came from before using it. Use this theme to have fun with your audience using data games or game shows. You could also use it to help people learn more about data literacy. Or you could talk about being responsible when dealing with important issues involving data. We’ve created a ready-to-use social media post.

Working with these data can be a challenge. Especially for researchers in Business\, Economics and Social Sciences\, who graduated just a few years ago when most study programs covered mainly or exclusively ‘traditional’ data collection methods such as surveys with structured\, tabular data. To unlock the research potential of new data sources by applying fitting methods\, education is needed. The BERD Academy is the training outlet of the consortium for Business\, Economics\, and Related Data in the National Research Data Infrastructure (BERD@NFDI). In this talk\, we will present how a wide range of offers in flexible formats fulfills the needs of researchers and research data providers. We want to discuss\, how educational content can unlock research potential and how open education can foster open science.

Auch wenn dies u.a. im Sinne der Nachnutzbarkeit vorhandener Forschungsergebnisse eine sehr begrüßenswerte Entwicklung darstellt\, so bringt sie dennoch auch technische und organisatorische Herausforderungen für Forschungsdatenmanager*innen mit sich. Hierzu zählt ein Mehr an erforderlichen Ressourcen in allen Phasen des Forschungsdatenlebenszyklus\, sowohl in technischer\, wie in personeller Hinsicht; auch können juristische und ethische Herausforderungen entstehen oder schlicht und einfach der Überblick verlorengehen.Vor diesem Hintergrund hat der Arbeitskreis Forschungsdatenmanagement in Baden-Württemberg (AK FDM) in Zusammenarbeit mit der Landesinitiative für Forschungsdaten bwFDM einen Leitfaden veröffentlicht\, der praktische Ansätze liefert\, wie durch digitale Datensparsamkeit notwendige technische und organisatorische Ressourcen reduziert werden können. In dieser Veranstaltung werden Dr. Sophie Habinger und Maximilian Heber (Landesinitiative bwFDM) zunächst die Hintergründe und Kernelemente des Leitfadens vorstellen. Anschließend freuen wir uns auf Ihre Fragen und laden zu einer Diskussion rund um das Thema Digitale Datensparsamkeit ein.

These crises have far-reaching humanitarian impacts\, disrupting lives and livelihoods worldwide and necessitating coordinated\, timely interventions across local\, national\, regional\, and global levels. In response\, UNESCO has partnered with the Committee on Data (CODATA) of the International Science Council (ISC) to explore how the principles of open science\, as articulated in the 2021 UNESCO Recommendation on Open Science\, can inform the development of effective policies for data collection\, analysis\, and sharing during crises. This initiative aligns with existing international frameworks and policies\, emphasizing the role of open science in fostering resilient and informed responses. As part of this effort\, the UNESCO-CODATA Data Policies for Times of Crisis Facilitated by Open Science (DPTC) project has produced practical resources\, including a factsheet\, a guidance document\, and a checklist. These tools\, integrated into the UNESCO Open Science Toolkit\, are designed to facilitate the implementation of the UNESCO Open Science Recommendation and empower stakeholders to adopt robust data practices for crisis management. This webinar will present key findings from UNESCO’s global consultation on crisis data policies and showcase the resources developed to support open\, transparent\, and reliable data governance in times of crisis.
