Listening Session: Federal Guidance for Open Science and Data

Sunday, July 9, 3:45 to 5:00 p.m. MDT
Location: Ponderosa

Recent White House policy guidance requires that federally funded research publications and data must be made immediately free and publicly accessible. In response, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Natural Hazards Center cohosted the Open Data and Reuse in Social Science Weather Research Workshop in April 2023. The workshop explored the new policy, advances in the social science instrument and data publication infrastructure, training and mentoring for data publication, and publishing and reuse challenges—as well as solutions to overcome those challenges—and recommendations for next steps. This listening session will highlight workshop findings and recommendations and invite the broader hazard and disaster community to share thoughts and feedback on how to make hazards and disaster data and publications open and accessible.
