Salut la liste ,
1. Thanks to User:Abián from WMES we now have draft answers to the Data Strategy Consultation of the European Commission. [1]
2. We also have a pretty final draft of a position paper on quality requirements for high-value datasets. [2]
3. We are now gathering insights, opinions and ideas around the suggestion that so-called "data trustees" (DE: Datentreuhänder) could be established to enable citizens to make available their data for the public interest.
If you want to contribute to any of these now would be a good time, as we need to submit our position by the end of the month.
Cheers, Dimi

What is the primary question on the data trustees?

On data trustees: The idea is that citizens should be able to donate their data (including private data in some cases) for the public good. This should be handled by some entity that can guarantee safe and respectful reuse of that data and for it to be used really for the public good and not for private profit.
But while it would be good to have such an animal, there are no clear ideas on how to set it up, who should run it and how it should operate.

There’s a lot of ideas, maybe no best practices? Happy to introduce anyone interested here to Sean McDonald, who has written a lot on this and is interested in/big fan of Wikipedia (though I think not an editor?)

On data trustees, I think a really good example is Midata https://www.midata.coop/en/home/, which serves as data trustee for health data. It's a nonprofit, with a cooperative governance structure, based on a Swiss legal framework. But they help set up similar structures in other countries and they were founded by well respected researchers. (full disclosure: I consulted with them for a bit before starting my work at WMF.)
Best, Jan
