Working Groups

An opportunity to be at the birth of a modern approach to research data management in the Czech Republic


Are you interested in research data management or addressing this issue in your project? Join EOSC CZ working groups and get the opportunity to directly influence the National Data Infrastructure's (NDI) direction.

EOSC CZ Working Groups are an open platform where experts from academia and research come together to discuss and shape the architecture, technical standards and methodological approaches for working with research data. Through these groups, you can be present at the creation of fundamental recommendations that have the potential to influence the shape of data infrastructure in the Czech Republic.

How do the working groups work?

  • Open membership: membership of the working groups is open to academics, researchers, government and public institutions.
  • Working Group Charter: Each Working Group has its own Charter, which describes the focus and objectives of the group and is updated regularly.
  • Meetings and Discussions: Online meetings are held as needed, but at least once every 2 months, with the group meeting in person at least once a year. Specific research data management issues are discussed and decided by consensus.
  • Minutes and records: minutes or records of each meeting are taken and made available to working group members.

The Four Cross-cutting Working Groups

The cross-cutting groups include experts from across specialties who work together to find commonality in architecture and shared services across the National Data Infrastructure (NDI).

Eight sectoral working groups

The main objective of the sectoral (thematic) working groups is to unify the requirements of the individual disciplines and integrate them into the National Data Infrastructure (NDI). The Sensitive Data Working Group has a unique position within this structure, focusing on sensitive research data's specific needs and protection.
