Study Day 2024

Introduction

Encouraged by the success of the first two editions of the Study Day - in 2022 and 2023, the DARIAH-CH consortium organizes its 2024 edition, which takes place at the Basel Academy of Art and Design FHNW on 22 November.

The theme of this years' edition is:

Between FAIR and CARE: challenges and opportunities for data management

In the last years, the FAIR [Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable] guiding principles for scientific data management stewardship (Wilkinson et al., 2016) have become watchwords in Arts and Humanities. According to these principles, a special attention is being given to data and metadata that must be:

easy to find easy to find by both humans and machines
stored for the long-term such that they can be easily accessed and used by machines and humans using standard communication protocols
ready to be exchanged, interpreted and combined in a (semi)automatic way with other data sets by humans and machines
sufficiently well-described to allow data to be reused in future research, allowing for integration with other compatible data sources (SNSF Explanation of FAIR data principles)

Parallely, in 2019, the Global Indigenous Data Alliance released the CARE [Collective benefit, Authority to control, Responsibility, Ethics] Principles for Indigenous Data Governance. The CARE Principles explain that the use of Indigenous data should result in tangible benefits for Indigenous collectives through inclusive development and innovation, improved governance and citizen engagement, and result in equitable outcomes (Caroll et al. 2021). When applied to the context of scientific data, the CARE principles refer to how scientific data are used in ways that are purposeful and oriented towards enhancing wellbeing of people. A CARE-compliant data management is ethically and socially responsible.
