The aim of the RDA Global Adoption week 15 - 19 June 2020 is to demonstrate the wide variety of adoptable and adopted solutions to data sharing challenges that people in the field encounter in their daily jobs.

The CODATA Data Science Journal is open for new submissions for RDA community members:

The COVID-19 Data Portal was launched in April 2020 to bring together relevant datasets for sharing and analysis in an effort to accelerate coronavirus research. It enables researchers to upload, access and analyse COVID-19 related reference data and specialist datasets as part of the wider European COVID-19 Data Platform. 
 

On 22nd of April 2020, the RDA BG node working group will make a ZOOM meeting in order to discuss and plan the next steps of the RDA node activities in Bulgaria.

More specifically, the team will set up the next steps for the organisation of the National RDA Seminar.

The group will analyze the new requirements of the situation and will suggest new activities and recommendations.

A newly established Working Group has set twofold objectives:

1. to clearly define detailed guidelines on data sharing under the present COVID-19 circumstances to help stakeholders follow best practices to maximize the efficiency of their work
2. to develop guidelines for policymakers to maximise timely data sharing and appropriate responses in such health emergencies.
