Webinar ‘Open data, academia, and ethics: argumentation for trustworthy data-based reasoning’
27 March 2026
OnlineDo you want to understand the foundations of academic integrity in a data-driven research environment ? Join us for the upcoming data.europa academy webinar on 'Open data, academia, and ethics: fostering trust through data-based reasoning' taking place on Friday, 27 March 2026, from 10.00 to 11.00 CET.
To kick off our webinar series on ‘Open data, academia, and ethics’, we will explore how open data and emerging technologies shape research integrity, knowledge production, and public trust. This webinar aims to show how data-based arguments are constructed in academic and AI-supported research and why transparency at the level of data is not sufficient to ensure integrity.
In this webinar, Elfia Bezou Vrakatseli, a researcher in AI and argumentation at Inria, will highlight potentially manipulative data-based arguments, allowing participants to strengthen their ability to spot such manipulation. She will also explain how even the use of high-quality open data may lead to misleading or weak reasoning and how to avoid such pitfalls. Joining her is Ameer Saadat-Yazdi, a researcher in natural language reasoning and argumentation at Inria, who will share insights into the nuances of human reasoning, how these nuances indicate that humans do not reason like computers, and why it is crucial to teach computers to reason like us in order to navigate the complexities of real-world data effectively.
After registering, you will receive an email with a calendar invite and webinar link. This webinar is part of the ‘Measuring the impact of open data’ course offered by the data.europa academy and will be recorded for future access.
