TRANSCRIPT
Generations & Gender Programme Newsletter No. 53 | November & December 2019
Funding for Data Collection in Germany
The German national application for funding was successful! The German
Federal Ministry of Education and Research approved the proposal
for "Family Research and Demographic Analysis (FReDA)". This means
Germany will start to collect data for the next round of the GGS in 2020. We
congratulate the German consortium and our colleagues at the Federal
Institute for Population Research (BiB).
Application for the ESFRI Roadmap - Update
The GGP will be applying to join the European Strategy Framework on
Research Infrastructures (ESFRI) 2021 roadmap. The ESFRI roadmap is a
strategic document that identifies vital research infrastructures in Europe. By
being successful in joining the ESFRI roadmap will signal that the GGP
achieved high standards in terms of scientific excellence and maturity.
New GGP Consortium Members
We are happy to announce that the
University of Zagreb and the
Estonian Institute for Population
Studies have jointed the Consortium
Board of the GGP. As members of
the Consortium Board they will help
set the scientific direction of the GGP
and ensure that it is capable of
providing answers to many of the
most pressing demographic research
questions.
Task Force - Longitudinal Questionnaire
On 11th November, Anne
Gauthier (NIDI), Tom Emery (NIDI),
Peter Lugtig (University of Utrecht),
Trude Lappegard (University of
Oslo), Zsuzsanna Makay (Hungarian
Demographic Research Institute),
and Martin Bujard (BIB) met for an
intensive 1-day meeting to finalize
the longitudinal questionnaire. More
information on the questionnaire will
follow soon.
Theses using GGP data
The GGP is continuously looking to
find out more about how GGP data
are used. We are particularly
interested in hearing about Master's
and PhD theses completed in the
last five years and written in any
language that use GGS, Harmonized
Histories, and/ or FFS data.
Have you written such a thesis or do
you know of one? Please add the
thesis to the bibliography on the
GGP website (login required) or
send an email to [email protected].
Reminder - New GGP Citation Requirements
We have changed the way we would like users to cite the GGP data. Starting
from now, the following acknowledgment has to be included in all publications
using GGS data (wave 1, and wave 2):
"This paper uses data from the GGS Waves 1, and 2 (DOIs: 10.17026/dans-
z5z-xn8g, 10.17026/dans-xm6-a262), see Gauthier, A. H. et al. (2018) or visit
the GGP website (https://www.ggp-i.org) for methodological details."
If you recently had a paper published, do not worry about changing the way in
which data are cited but we would ask all users to adhere to this new citation
requirement moving forward. More information about the GGP data are
available here.
Scientific Advisory Board &
Steering Committee meeting
On 28th November, the Advisory Board and Steering Committee of GGP met at
the NIDI in the Hague. Triggered by the report from the GGP Central Hub,
discussions arose around issues pertaining to investments to further improve
data quality, future endeavors for a Pan-European benchmark study, and a
mixed mode design for the GGS. Moreover, the group examined the latest
version of the application for the ESFRI Roadmap in some detail and provided
feedback to the Central Coordination Team.
Consortium Board meeting
On 29th November, 26 representatives from 11 different member institutions
met at NIDI in the Hague for the annual Consortium Board meeting. During the
course of the day, the Consortium Board discussed the priorities of the GGP
Central Hub, the financial and governance reports, the GGP data catalogue
and fieldwork guidelines, the scientific and socio-economic impact of the
infrastructure and the application to join the ESFRI 2021 roadmap.
