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.
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 full-day event will be divided into three parts: To open the day, the two working groups of CLARIN-CH will present the results of their collaborative work and the documentation of best practices to the linguistic community in Switzerland. The morning will continue with pitches by researchers, in which they will present their challenges on the management and sharing of linguistic data. The afternoon will be dedicated to a World Café Workshop, where researchers and participants can meet experts on four different topics (see 1 to 4 below) to discuss their challenges and explore potential solutions.
For the morning sessions, we welcome submissions for data pitches on one or several of the four topics listed below. Data pitches should address challenges you face(d) related to the chosen theme(s) and if possible, present solutions. Each data pitch should be no longer than 5-10 minutes and held in English. Presentation slides are recommended.
Please submit a 200-word abstract (approximately) via our submission form. In the submission form, you need to indicate the topic (see 1-4 above) of your contribution and paste your abstract directly into the required field. Please be aware that abstracts of data pitches accepted for the CLARIN-CH Day will be made available in a book of abstract.
