OPENMIN brings together a consortium of researchers and technological experts from six countries (Austria, Belgium, France, Poland, Romania and Switzerland) that will collaborate to consolidate and expand a range of Open Science and Open Data initiatives that foster comparative knowledge generation and research capacities on Ethnic and Migrant Minorities and Migration Studies in Europe. The project will build on existing collaborations and cross- fertilising initiatives of Open Science that have been supported by a combination of national and EU-level programmes with the aim of generating European-wide infrastructures that make research and data focusing on Ethnic and Migrant Minorities and on Migration findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR). OPENMIN will consolidate and expand the following FAIR tools: (1) the Ethnic and Migrant Minorities Survey Registry, (2) the Ethnic and Migrant Minorities Question Data Bank, (3) the Ethnic and Migrant Minorities Post-Harmonized Survey Data Bank, (4) the Nccr On the Move Migration-Mobility Survey data analysis and reuse tools, and (5) the IMISCOE Migration Research Hub. It will also allow for cross-national learning and tool development through the conception and/or generation of new Open Science and Open Data infrastructure tools and resources: (1) a prototype for a new Ethnic and Migrant Minorities Qualitative Study Registry, (2) a self-depositing Ethnic and Migrant Minorities Open Data Repository, (3) a metadata collection on surveys conducted with Ukrainian migrants and refugees, and (4) the prototype for an Ethnic and Migrant Minorities Survey Data Playground. In so doing, OPENMIN will contribute to the Open Science and Open Data strategic agenda for one of the core areas of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research in the social sciences and the humanities in Europe: the field of studies on Ethnic and Migrant Minorities and on Migration more generally. OPENMIN will generate, expand and consolidate several infrastructures and tools that establish the conditions for research data reuse and which, in most cases, are designed with reusable (and open) software or programming code. These are: - The Ethnic and Migrant Minorities Survey Registry: it creates the conditions for data reuse of thousands of quantitative survey datasets produced across Europe since 2000 through the publication of detailed metadata on the surveys, and the architecture of this tool has been produced with reusable programming code. - The Ethnic and Migrant Minorities Question Data Bank: it creates the conditions for data reuse of survey questionnaires through metadata using Data Documentation Initiative Lifecycle. - The Ethnic and Migrant Minorities Post-Harmonized Survey Data Bank: it creates the conditions for data reuse of independently produced surveys that are pooled together in a single file through processes of data post-harmonization that are documented in open access code. - The Nccr On the Move Migration-Mobility Survey data analysis and reuse tools: they provide the conditions of data reuse and data reanalysis to large audiences, with reusable and open code. - The IMISCOE Migration Research Hub: it creates the conditions for the reuse of a larger range of research on migration through its detailed metadata documentation of research expertise, publications, projects and datasets. The new datasets, collections and tools that will also be generated through OPENMIN will all adhere to the FAIR principles. Additionally, we will start the process to link them to EOSC through their onboarding on the EOSC Catalogue

 

Principal Investigator of the research project „Consolidating Open Science and Data Initiatives on Ethnic and Migrant Minorities in Europe” announces a call no. 1/2024/1009_BAD-0076 for a National Science Centre Scholarship

The call for a National Science Centre Scholarship is announced within the framework of the research project entitled „Consolidating Open Science and Data Initiatives on Ethnic and Migrant Minorities in Europe” funded by the National Science Centre under an agreement no. UMO-2022/04/Y/HS6/00169 (within the framework of the CHIST-ERA Open & Re-usable Research Data & Software Call).

Information about the project: The project entitled “Consolidating Open Science and Data Initiatives on Ethnic and Migrant Minorities in Europe” brings together a consortium of researchers and technological experts from six countries (Austria, Belgium, France, Poland, Romania and Switzerland) that will collaborate to consolidate and expand a range of Open Science and Open Data initiatives that foster comparative knowledge generation and research capacities on Ethnic and Migrant Minorities (EMM) and Migration Studies in Europe. The project will build on existing collaborations and cross-fertilising initiatives of Open Science that have been supported by a combination of national and EU-level programmes with the aim of generating European-wide infrastructures that make research and data focusing on Ethnic and Migrant Minorities and on Migration findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR). The project work will involve, among others, a new metadata collection on surveys conducted with Ukrainian refugees to be added to the existing EMM Survey Registry and the creation of new cross-national post-harmonized survey datasets on (1) Ukrainian refugee surveys, (2) surveys relating to the discrimination of minorities and (3) national-level surveys on the civic and political integration of EMMs.
