The GGP, initiated in 2000, is a system of nationally comparative panel surveys and contextual databases which aims at improving our knowledge about demographic processes in Europe and other developed countries. Currently, wave 1 individual-level datasets are available for 11 countries (Austria, Bulgaria, Estonia, France, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Netherlands, Norway, Rumania, Russia). In addition, data on a Turkish-subsample of the German population is available. Later this year, wave 1 data releases for Australia, Belgium, Italy, and Lithuania are planned. In addition, the first wave 2 data sets (Bulgaria, Germany, Netherlands) are also planned to be released this year.
This workshop on GGP data use will familiarise data users with the content and treatment of data files prepared for international comparative research. Attendees will be introduced to data collection, data preparation and harmonization procedures used in the international releases of the Generations and Gender Survey data. Special attention will be give to data archiving and data dissemination activities including the access to the on-line analytical module and access to the micro-data. The workshop also places strong emphasis on feedback information received from its current users in order to ensure development of procedures that fit the needs of wide range of users.
