12th Annual European DDI User Conference (EDDI20), DDI – The Basis of Managing the Data Life Cycle

  • Submission Deadline: July 12, 2020, 23:59 CEST

We are currently working on the assumption that the Conference will proceed as planned. However, with the current uncertainty, it is possible that we may not be able to proceed with the physical conference, under those circumstances we will explore whether a virtual conference is possible or may defer to a later date.

Updates will be posted on the EDDI conferences website https://www.eddi-conferences.eu through the DDI Users list  (sign up at <http://lists.icpsr.umich.edu/mailman/listinfo/ddi-users>  and on Twitter @DDIAlliance.

EDDI20 is organized jointly by the Center for Socio-Political Data (CDSP) <https://cdsp.sciences-po.fr/en/>, GESIS – Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences <http://www.gesis.org/en/home/> and IDSC of IZA <http://idsc.iza.org/> – International Data Service Center of the Institute for the Study of Labor.

The Data Documentation Initiative <http://www.ddialliance.org/> (DDI) is an international standard for describing the data produced by surveys and other observational methods in the social, behavioural, economic, and health sciences.
