Introduction (15 minutes)
Invited talk: Social challenges for data sharing (15 min + 10 min Q&A)
Discussion activity focused on the following key questions (45 min). The questions gathered here will inform the development of a survey and output on the social dynamics that influence the implication of the FAIR principles.

What questions could we ask about the social aspects that foster or hinder making data Findable?
What questions could we ask about the social aspects that foster or hinder making data Accessible?
What questions could we ask about the social aspects that foster or hinder making data Interoperable?
What questions could we ask about the social aspects that foster or hinder making data Reusable?

Meeting close (5 minutes)
Next steps, plan for outputs, and call for contributors.

Meeting objectives
This will be the 4th Plenary meeting of the Social Dynamics of Data Interoperability Interest Group. Identifying and naming the specific challenges related to sharing data was a key theme of the RDA17 session. In particular, challenges identified in the work of Hanna Shmagun on “Open Science at a time of the COVID-19 pandemic” sparked much discussion. Following on from this, this session will focus on identifying the top 10 social challenges of data sharing. For example, identifying organisational structures that enable or hinder data sharing, identifying why individuals experience data sharing hesitancy. 
 
At this meeting attendees will:

Learn about the social and institutional enablers and barriers for data sharing and interoperability from each other and invited speaker Dr. Steven McEachern (Director, Australian Data Archive, Australian National University).

Contribute to a discussion of how these enablers and barriers relate to their experience, with a focus on social dynamics impact adoption of the FAIR principles.

Co-design (both within the session and beyond) a survey to gather responses from the RDA community on this topic.

The meeting objective is to provide targeted discussion on data sharing challenges. This will be focused around the curation of questions to be used to develop a survey to investigate this topic. This will focus the next steps of the IG, which are anticipated to be the development and implementation of a survey, the analysis of results, and the publication of associated outputs.

Meeting presenters

Dr. Steven McEachern (Director, Australian Data Archive, Australian National University) will give an invited presentation on the challenges and oportunities of social aspects of data sharing.
