Register now for our workshop: ‘How to use open data for your research’
Learn how open data can enhance your scholarly work
On 25 October, from 10:00 to 11:30 CEST, the data.europa academy will host the workshop ‘How to use open data for your research’ where participants can learn how to apply open data independently. Although the workshop is tailored for academics and students, it is suitable for all open data enthusiasts who are interested in using open data.
During the workshop, experts from the University of the Aegean in Greece will discuss both how to use open data in research and how researching open data itself can drive innovation and support decision-making. Additionally, experts from the Open Data Institute will showcase the potential of open data, guiding participants through the steps of a recent study they conducted using open data, and presenting their findings. Using real-world use cases and practical steps, participants will be able to apply the knowledge gained in the workshop to their own academic research process. The workshop will also include a hands-on assignment, giving participants direct practical experience in locating and using open data, with the help of datasets from the data.europa portal.
The event is part of a workshop series for using open data in research. In October 2023, we organised the first workshop, where three universities showed their perspectives on using open data for academic purposes. In May 2024, the second workshop took place, where a use case in citizen science was presented.
