Microdata Methods and Practice RTN
Date started: 01 April 2005
The Network aims to keep European researchers contributing at the expanding methodological frontier of this subject and to facilitate the take up of these methods by applied researchers in Europe.

The objectives of the network are as follows.

  • To provide a European focus for, and engage in the development of, microdata research methods.
  • To conduct best practice quantitative social science research based on microdata resources and methods.
  • To stimulate development of microdata resources, survey development and design.
  • To stimulate development of skills in microdata methods and practice and appreciation of their strengths and weaknesses amongst academic researchers and users in the public and private sectors.
  • To provide a research environment in which researchers and users interact while addressing research and policy questions.
