When we collect data to answer our research questions during fieldwork, we are generally aware that we need certain legal permissions – to work in a certain area, to collect samples, and so on. We are also generally aware of ethical aspects and especially when people are part of the study we will also have obtained approval of the ethics committee before setting off. But what about when we subsequently publish our results?
In this workshop, aimed at researchers as well as research professionals, we will look into the ethical side of sharing fieldwork data. How do you decide what data to share and what not? Are you actually the person to decide, and/or who (else) should be involved? We will do through case studies as well as by looking at the CARE principles and a CARE-inspired framework.
Target audience
Researchers including PhD candidates and research master students; research support staff/research professionals
