Explore how the #CAREPrinciples — Collective Benefit, Authority to Control, Responsibility, and Ethics—can inform ethical data governance and sharing within fieldwork and participatory research contexts. We will feature lightning presentations and interactive discussions to explore how current ethics and data management practices at Dutch universities already support the CARE principles and identify barriers to their implementation.
Learn to balance community engagement with research objectives.
Exchange insights and experiences with fellow researchers.
Contribute to shaping ethical data governance and sharing practices.
