SSHOC webinar: Introducing the newly launched Ethnic and Migrant Minorities (EMM) Survey Registry

Date: 26 October 2020 Location: Online

In June 2020, SSHOC and the COST Action ETHMIGSURVEYDATA launched the beta version of the EMM Survey Registry: a free online tool that will display survey-level metadata for over 800 surveys on ethnic and migrant minorities' (EMMs') integration from over 30 European countries.

This webinar discussed the development of the EMM Survey Registry and offered a tutorial of the currently available beta version. Participants were able to learn more about the use and design of the registry with a special focus on:

• the FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable) principles
• the diverse target users of the registry and its survey-level metadata
• the registry's sustainability

This webinar was open to anyone interested in working with or learning more about quantitative survey research on EMMs' integration.
