INFORMATIK 2024

For the 54th time the German Computer Science Society is celebrating the INFORMATIK Festival, an event dedicated to networking and the exchange of information and skills between people working in computer science. This year’s event is hosted by the Hochschule Rhein-Main in Wiesbaden. The DKZ.2R will be taking part in the “Data-Science-Community Workshop” on the last day of the festival. The overarching goal of this workshop is to build bridges and lay the groundwork for sustainable connections between different data-science related projects like the newly founded Data Literacy Centers and other projects receiving permanent funding such as the different NFDI consortia.

Status Meeting of the German Data Literacy Centers

From September 19th to 20th the BMBF is inviting representatives of all eleven Data Literacy Centers in Germany to come together in Berlin and discuss the progress and the difficulties of the projects. There will be two days of workshops with topics ranging from discussions of domain-specific data literacy to strategies and concept for stabilizing data literacy projects. Furthermore, there will be plenty of time for networking with the other Data literacy centers, as well as invited speakers from other data literacy and research data management initiatives such as the NFDI. Our main coordinator, Alicia Janz, and Lukas Bossert from RWTH Aachen University will represent the DKZ.2R at the meeting. We are looking forward to gaining insights into the work of other data literacy centers and learning from their experiences and the measures they are taking to support scientist in their work with research data.

NFDI4Objects Community Meeting 2024

From the 25th to 27th of September 2024, the Leibnitz Centre for Archaeology (LEIZA) & Mainz University of Applied Sciences are hosting the second NFDI4Objects Community meeting. There will be a diverse program with workshops focused on students and young researchers as well as teachers and other interested parties on the topic of research data management of object-related data. Furthermore, the NFDI4Objects will present their annual report, host poster sessions, and ignite talks, and organise collaboration and community workshops. In one of the poster sessions, we (DKZ.2R) will be presenting our poster titled: “The Rhine-Ruhr Center for Scientific Data Literacy (DKZ.2R) bridging the gaps to NDFI4Objects” The full program (in German) can be found on the NFDI4Objects Website. As the DKZ.2R is only funded for a duration of three years, the various NDFI consortia play a major part in finding ways to establishing our offers and making them last. As part of our networking strategy we are also constantly exchanging ideas and looking for synergies between project to use our ressources as efficiently as possible.
