Operationalize CARE data governance by 1) centering relationships both individual and institutional, 2) practicing ongoing learning and assessment of governance, 3) collaborative permitting including shared protocols, and 4) documentation of governance reflected in metadata and naming.

As a reminder, the ideal Backup Strategy is 3-2-1-1-1-0.
At least 3 copies of your data. The original is not a copy.
At least 2 different kinds of media (hard disk, solid state, tape, “cloud”, etc.)
At least 1 off-site copy (in a geographically distinct area (100+ miles away)).
At least 1 offline copy of the data.
At least 1 immutable copy of the data.
And finally 0 errors in your testing. You are regularly testing your backups right?

Africa: Africa Sets Course to Strengthen and Harmonise Health Data Governance: [Africa CDC] The Africa Centre for Disease Control (Africa CDC) is set to kick off action towards strengthening and harmonising the framework of policies, procedures, and practices that ensure healthcare data is managed, protected, and used responsibly throughout its lifecycle -- health data governance -- across the continent. http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TM3sZJ #Africa #HealthData #DataGovernance #PublicHealth #AfricaCDC
Both projects reflect our commitment to ensuring the people whose data drives genomic research help shape both governance and communication.
searching for a solution:
i have caldav and carddav synchronized with davx5. how can I get birthday entries in calender like i was used to in outlook and M365?
sychronizing calender to google calendar is not an option. i was searching the web, but everywhere I look, they sync to google.
all contacts with birthday are stored on the smartphone.

"Research data management has become an inevitable part of research, and both funding agencies and publishers nowadays require open and reusable data. This article focuses on one of the most prominent initiatives promoting reusability of research data – the FAIR guiding principles – nowadays widely accepted as the new standard for research data management. Through semi-structured interviews, we investigated researchers’ experiences of practicing FAIR research data management within the context of a multi-stakeholder project within the field of health research funded by the European Commission. Our analysis showed that the informants’ experiences of practicing FAIR research data management differed largely depending on which scientific tradition they belonged to; something that previous studies have attributed to shortcomings in the current infrastructure, lack of resources and persistent cultures around data sharing in the wider scientific community. Drawing on previous work presented within the field of Critical Data Studies (CDS), we argue that our findings point to a more fundamental problem; namely the failure to recognize that the FAIR framework is built on a positivist conceptualization of data. We argue that if FAIR is to have any chance of succeeding in its ambitions to be as inclusive and all-encompassing as it wants to be, these insights need to be taken more into account and provide some potential pathways."
This was not hard to predict. #Data governance needs to go beyond a data entry for "Reason?" as that is clearly too vague. If #California wants to continue deploying and operating #ALPR technology, we need #datagovernance and accountability NOW.

"As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes more integrated into higher education, institutions find themselves balancing two competing imperatives: promoting data access that is open to all for collaboration to drive innovation and research, and protecting student privacy and institutional autonomy. While AI promises more personalization, predictive insights, and resource optimization for students and educators, its reliance on large-scale student data magnifies the risks of surveillance, discrimination, and educational technology (edtech) vendor overreach. The current higher education landscape demonstrates the diverse ways in which colleges and universities approach their students’ data in the age of AI, ranging from open-arms data sharing to risk-averse data hoarding. A third option—intentional, collaborative data governance—offers a way to harness AI’s potential while safeguarding the core values of higher education."

It's a timely reminder:
Where AI runs — and where data goes — still matters more than model size or speed.
