The RDA Fifth Plenary is open to RDA members and the public. We especially welcome those individuals that share our core values of creating the building blocks of common data infrastructures that can bridge disciplinary activities under a community-driven and non-profit model. Data experts, scientists, researchers and other professionals are encouraged to attend, as well as students and early career professionals in industries related to the fields of research data sharing and exchange. RDA works under the principles of openness, consensus, balance, and harmonization.
