Dear colleagues,
Have you ever wondered which collection practices and historical contexts led to the
creation of the collections you work with?
To facilitate fruitful learning and discussion on the topic, we invite you to our upcoming
online seminar series, “Ethics in Action: Working with Sensitive Data from Scientific
Collections<https://winoda.de/en/educational-offers/seminar-series-ethics-in-action/>”.
In this seminar series, we will explore the ethics of data derived from scientific
collections, covering topics ranging from dinosaur fossils to looted artefacts, as well as
threatened species and genetic resources. Our panel of excellent speakers from around the
world will highlight the importance of understanding the historical and ethical context of
collection data, discuss the challenges of working with such materials responsibly, and
present practical approaches and tools for addressing these complexities. The series aims
to foster dialogue and collaboration towards more just, transparent, and responsible
practices in the management and use of collection data.
