Share with Confidence: Rights and Licencing in Chemical Research

How can chemical research data be shared and reused with legal clarity and confidence? Join our interactive, two-day workshop (with sessions from 10 am to 12 pm) “Share with Confidence: Rights and Licencing in Chemical Research” to explore key aspects of rights, licences, permissions, attribution, and reuse conditions for research data in chemistry.

During this event, you will receive a compact introduction to rights and licencing in the context of chemical research data. The workshop will address common questions around data ownership, copyright, Creative Commons licences, good research practice, repository publication, and responsible reuse. Particular attention will be given to practical situations in chemistry.

The workshop combines short input sessions, chemistry-related examples, interactive reflection, and opportunities for questions and exchange. It is designed to help participants make informed decisions when preparing research data for publication, choosing suitable licences, or reusing data from others.

This workshop is specifically designed for researchers in chemistry and related disciplines at all career stages, as well as research data management support staff who would like to strengthen their understanding of rights and licencing for chemical research data.

The workshop will be conducted in English. No legal expertise is required. The workshop provides an accessible introduction and focuses on practical orientation for everyday research contexts.
