In times of crisis - be it health emergencies, wars, natural disasters or cyber incidents - the integrity, availability and security of scientific data are at heightened risk. Despite growing digital infrastructure, many research institutions lack comprehensive strategies for secure data storage and loss prevention. A single disruption can wipe out years of research or restrict access when it’s most needed. As digital transformation accelerates, so too must our approaches to data resilience.
While these issues are increasingly urgent for the global research community, many science institutions may not have fully assessed their vulnerabilities or preparedness. This webinar seeks to address core questions around data storage models and proactive safeguarding strategies to ensure that scientific data remains intact, accessible and trustworthy in any crisis. Through this session, the InterAcademy Partnership (IAP) and the International Science Council (ISC) will bring together experts to discuss the risks to scientific data during crises, best practices for resilience, and lessons learned from recent global emergencies. The event will provide a platform for researchers, institutional leaders and data experts to exchange insights and seek clarification on relevant strategies. The webinar will be recorded and summarized on the IAP and ISC websites (see past webinars).
Registration: All participants, including speakers, should register using this link.
