Plan4all as the coordinator of the RDA node in the Czech Republic has its own space at the RDA website to post news and inform wider audiences about the progress of RDA uptake in the Czech Republic.
The RDA Czech Republic space can be accessed at https://www.rd-alliance.org/groups/rda-czech-republic
RDA is an international volunteer member-based organisation and as such encourages the initiative and support of its members across the globe to animate their community on a national level. RDA Europe national node are part of the RDA Europe support programme whose aim is to interact with researchers and innovators in the local language, offering them a platform for exchange of information pertinent to the RDA and their activities and in strict compliance with RDA’s guiding principles of Openness, Transparency, Consensus-based, Community driven, Harmonisation and Non-profit. The national pages should not be interpreted as an official representation of the Research Data Alliance in any country or any organisation unless this is specifically stated.
If there is an RDA National Group set up in your country, once your account is active you will be subscribed to receive information and news from that group. If you wish to unsubscribe, you can easily do that by editing the settings in your profile.

The RDA Secretariat aims to promote the uptake of RDA Recommendations and Outputs across all regions. In this context, the RDA Secretariat is working on is a series of webinars that aim to train stakeholders for adoption. The webinars will highlight outputs of RDA Interest and Working Groups, and demonstrate the added value of RDA.
This webinar focuses on RDA groups and outputs related to Data Management Plans. We aim to highlight ongoing work in RDA from the perspectives of RDA Interest and Working Group chairs, facilitating discussion between the chairs and potential adopters of RDA Recommendations and Outputs.

RDA Europe, the European plug-in to the Research Data Alliance, ran the second call for RDA Europe national nodes to expand its European network. Six new countries are joining forces to foster adoption of RDA outputs in the region.
Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Lithuania, Norway and Sweden have been selected as new RDA Europe nodes; till the end of the project in May 2020, they will be engaging with research communities, supporting national agendas, and contributing to the EU Open Science Strategy to ensure capillary uptake of RDA principles and outputs. Moreover, they will be working to increase the participation in RDA globally.

The jury of the Patras DataBio Hackathon 2019 selected the following projects as overall winners of this hackathon:
Congratulations to all the winning teams and many thanks for participation to all participants!
This is a video showing the winning application in action:
TEAM LEADER: Peter Haro, SINTEF, peter.haro(at)sintef.no
TEAM MEMBERS: Øystein Knutsen, student, SINTEF, Dmitrij Kožuch, cartographer, GIS specialist, developer, Plan4All association
PROJECT IDEA: The main idea pertains to interconnecting public and private datasets to create better machine learning methodologies and prediction modules for the fishery domain. Furthermore, for this to provide added value for end users in systems such as DSS, big data visualization is a key facet, thus the team will focus on collating data and visualizing it in an effective manner.
The initiative is based on activities in the DataBio project, https://www.databio.eu/en/.
