International Data Week (IDW)

International Data Week (IDW) is a significant conference hosted by the Committee on Data (CODATA) and the World Data System (WDS) of the International Science Council (ISC), and the Research Data Alliance (RDA). It serves as a convergence of data professionals from various fields worldwide to discuss optimizing the data revolution for enhancing scientific and societal outcomes through data-centric innovation. IDW integrates two major events: the RDA Plenary Meeting, focusing on building and maintaining a global infrastructure for data sharing and reuse, and SciDataCon, a scientific conference presented by CODATA and WDS that addresses cutting-edge data challenges in research.
