The conference aims to contribute to the ongoing dialogue on open science and open access to research data in particular by providing a forum for discussion that brings together an excellent line-up of international experts and key stakeholders. The Conference is designed around the following key themes:

Policies for open access to research data
Good practices in enabling re-use of research data
Open research data and research cultures
PSI as research data and vice versa
Grand challenges in opening access to research data

The conference will showcase the results from RECODE and officially launch the RECODE Policy Recommendations.

This will be achieved through the production of overarching recommendations as well as specifically targeted at the following stakeholder groups:

Data managers
Funders
Publishers
Research institutions

The RECODE final conference provides an opportunity for learning as well as taking part in a rich dialogue regarding open access to research data within the current European research landscape. The Agenda and location information can be found on the RECODE website.
