Five-Part Webinar Series
In order to strengthen the culture of data stewardship in Canada, Research Data Canada offers webinars on subjects related to research data management, curation, and preservation.
Data Ownership Series Part 1: Data Ownership Writ Large
The first of a five-part series on data ownership presented by Research Data Canada, this webinar will provide an introduction to the topic of data ownership and intellectual property in the research context. Presented in a discussion panel format, panelists will respond to questions probing the background, context, and current state of data ownership from a variety of stakeholder perspectives.This discussion will provide a solid foundation upon which to build following sessions on focused data ownership topics, including Indigenous data ownership, the academic post-secondary context, standards and protocols, and the open science and open data context. Join us as we embark on our exploration, examination, and discussion of the essential and often complex world of data ownership and intellectual property in the research context today.
