The event is the first of a series of annual meetings of the CLARIN-CH community. It is organized by the CLARIN-CH consortium in cooperation with its member institutions and aims to support the scientific community in their challenges when it comes to Open Research data. It seeks to foster exchange and to enable the encounter between researchers and data management experts, as well as legal experts.
The 2024 edition aims to bring together experts and researchers to discuss challenges and opportunities, and to open the dialogue on standards and practices of open research data as well as the legal and ethical aspects of processing and sharing linguistic data. The event builds on the work done by two CLARIN-CH Working Groups, which address essential topics related to Open Research Data.
The CLARIN-CH Day 2024 consist of two main parts:
Present challenges and opportunities you discovered in handling your research data with respect to Open Science principles and receive insightful feedback from peers and experts. You are also invited to submit a contribution if you haven't collected the data yet, but want to address potential challenges and opportunities.
Participate in discussions with the invited experts:
The world café format will provide time for in-depth discussions, allowing participants to explore solutions to the challenges presented during the data pitches. This interactive setting is designed to foster meaningful exchanges and collaborative brainstorming.
Please sign up by 1 September 2024 if you intend to participate at the CLARIN-CH Day 2024.
