We are excited about the upcoming RDAP Hackathon! This time they are partnering with DataFirst and ICPSR to rescue data that was previously publicly-available on the USAID's knowledge platform.

Date: August 7, 2025
Time: 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM (Eastern)
Registration link: https://rdapassociation.org/event-6266055


Attendees will work together to capture and preserve federally-funded data that was previously publicly-available on the USAID's knowledge platform. Co-hosted by RDAP, DataFirst, and ICPSR, attendees of all skill levels are invited to join us in capturing, describing, uploading, and preserving at-risk federal data to contribute to the Data Rescue Project. For this data rescue, we will be focusing on education data collected by USAID. There will be a brief introduction to the session led by members of the Data Rescue Project Team and members of the team will be available to answer questions and provide assistance.
