Potential Romania DDI event opportunity for March 2025
Kathryn has shared Romaina DDI event opportunity from Adrian and Jared:
There's a chance to secure around 100k euros in funding from a research agency in Romania to host an event by March 2025.
We discussed some event ideas, and one concept is to host speakers who can showcase the benefits of good data documentation practices, particularly using DDI. The target audience would be national statistical agencies (matching our DDI strategic focus for this year) and large research projects.
This is still in the early planning stages, but I wanted to involve you both in your roles within the marketing and training groups. Could you share your thoughts on this idea and whether you’d be interested in collaborating on the event?
Thinking about this in terms of our strategic goals, Adrian, beyond using the funds to pay for speakers' travel and accommodation (Engaging the Community: Build community through products and events), could we use event funds for these related strategic goals:
Develop audience-specific training materials (Expanding the DDI Community) to be used at the event?
Support tools development (Aligning DDI Development) through a hackathon at the event?
