[ Community track ]

Run a session in the community track

Across two working days, the main track builds a functioning open science system: a participant-owned data consortium, datasets and code and knowledge objects published to it, algorithms that assess trust and impact from human endorsement and hard numbers, and community-owned collaboratives that fund on the strength of that analysis.

The community track runs alongside it — talks, workshops, panels, and discussions on the same four themes, in Leiden on Oct 12 and 13. Tell us what you’d run.

Fields marked Public may appear on the published schedule. Private fields are for organizers only.
