During this event, we will present findings from the Journals Outreach activities (CESSDA Work Plan 2020), engage with a panel of journal editors, publishers, researchers and data archives to discuss the challenges of data sharing from different perspectives and highlight good practices for working together to find solutions as part of the CESSDA Agenda 2021-22. We welcome participation and input from journal editors, scientific publishers, social scientists and representatives of data archives for a lively debate.
