Network - Open Innovation - Open (Citizen) Science - SDG

[Humanner]

Citizen scientists for Open Innovation,

the active participation of the public in scientific research projects, is a rapidly expanding field in open science and open innovation. It provides an integrated model of public knowledge production and engagement with science. As a growing worldwide phenomenon, it is invigorated by evolving new technologies that connect people easily and effectively with the scientific community.
Catalysed by citizens’ wishes to be actively involved in scientific processes, as a result of recent societal trends, it also offers contributions to the rise in tertiary education.
In addition, citizen science provides a valuable tool for citizens to play a more active role in sustainable development.

2021 LD4 Conference on Linked Data

"Building Connections Together"

https://sites.google.com/stanford.edu/2021ld4conf/home

Registration is open for the 2021 LD4 Conference on Linked Data

The 2021 LD4 Conference Program Committee is excited to announce that the 2021 LD4 Conference will be held online from July 19 to 23. We aim to build on the success of the LD4 2020 Conference (1,500+ attendees representing 22 countries, and 86 presenters), while incorporating the community’s increased experience with online meetings, and the availability of improved online collaboration tools, to create an event that is interactive, accessible, and engaging.

The conference will focus on concrete ways that linked data impacts GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums) institutions, and will share pathways that allow others to participate in linked data. By bringing together a broad range of perspectives, the conference seeks to create a community of practice for linked data in cultural heritage institutions.
