The 11th RDA Plenary Meeting will take place from the 21st to the 23rd March 2018 in Berlin, Germany. Under the theme "From Data to Knowledge", the Plenary meeting welcomes the participation of all data scientists, experts and practitioners engaged in the advancement of data-driven science and economy. The Research Data Alliance and the 2.5-day Plenary meeting provide the ideal, neutral and trustworthy forum to discuss the opportunities and challenges of a global data ecosystem of best practices, standards and interoperable data infrastructures fostering cross-disciplinary knowledge and innovation.


During the 11th RDA plenary meeting, FREYA, EOSC-hub, and OpenAIRE-Advance jointly organise a Birds-of-a-Feather (BoF) session: "EOSC-related European Projects getting Global: Engaging with the RDA".


These three projects relevant to the development of the European Science Cloud (EOSC) supported by the European Commission, plan to closely liaise with the RDA, taking advantage of the RDA Global Forum to engage with members from other regions and develop global solutions. The aim of the meeting is to have a first discussion in the RDA context, to identify existing activities of interest and activities to be developed in the RDA, and to liaise with RDA members from Europe and other regions possibly interested to join in common activities.


The BoF will take place on Wednesday 21st March 14:00-15:30. More information about the event can be found here.
