MetaQRD is a database front-end software to access and share empirical
research data in multiple formats gathered by multiple partners in different
countries. The raw data can include e.g., interview tapes, transcripts, videos, annual
reports, photos, and so on. Some data will be
derivative works for reporting and publicity, and this is also expected to be
available to the researchers and public, because in H2020 open data is
required, whenever possible.

The MetaQRD documentation details also the
principles of how to share data within a research consortium (e.g., international H2020 -research project). Sharing and accessing of
data outside the consortium is also part of MetaQRD’s Data Management Plan. It
will then be accessible outside the consortium within the limits of
confidentiality and consent permissions by the data subjects, and may become
part of the national repositories of research data within those limits. MetaQRD documentation contains information about
