International access to administrative data for Germany and Europe

Beschreibung

"In the last years, access to research data has made a lot of progress in EU countries. Despite developments such as 'Data without Boundaries', transnational access to confidential microdata remains complicated and needs improvement. The first part of the paper describes the modes of (international) access to highly sensitive German administrative labour market data and how this international access is expanded within the 'research data centre in research data centre' (RDC-in-RDC) approach. In the second part, we give a broader view of international access to official microdata in the EU. Starting with a brief overview of the EU-funded project 'Data without Boundaries' (DwB), we present a possible roadmap for international access in Europe and beyond."
