DANS is an institute of KNAW and NWO that provides services for long-term archiving and storage of research data. There are thousands of isolated data silos in the humanities such as historical databases, art collections, and linguistic corpora. The Research Data Alliance (RDA) is working to open up and connect these silos by building social and technical bridges to enable open sharing of data across technologies and disciplines. RDA brings together members in working groups to develop solutions like standards, best practices, and data citation methods to facilitate global data sharing and reproducibility of research findings.

9. Why not share?
• Those data are mine!
• Discredit my findings
• Still analyzing the data
• I cannot trust the data
produced somewhere else
..fear, distrust and a little bit of
laziness..
10. “Perhaps the biggest challenge in sharing data is
trust: how do you create a system robust enough for
scientists to trust that, if they share, their data
won’t be lost, garbled, stolen or misused?”
11. RDA: building social and technical bridges
RDA is building the social and technical bridges that enable open sharing of
data to achieve its vision of researchers and innovators openly sharing data
across technologies, disciplines, and countries to address the grand challenges
of society.
Members come together through self-formed, volunteer, focussed
Working Groups, exploratory Interest Groups to exchange
knowledge, share discoveries, discuss barriers and potential
solutions, explore and define policies and test as well as harmonise
standards to enhance and facilitate global data sharing.
Reproducibility
Data preservation
