Health education and health promotion are important elements of the health system in Germany. The Federal Centre for Health Education (BZgA) has been pursuing the goal of preventing health risks and encouraging health-promoting lifestyles since its establishment in 1967. In addition, the understanding of health and prevention is changing. Against this backdrop, health education is - as a constant communication process - dedicated to the goal of enabling self-responsible action in relation to health. The data sets can be requested from GESIS via the data archive for social sciences (DAS): https://www.gesis.org/institut/abteilungen/datenarchiv-fuer-sozialwissenschaften

The Research Data Centre of the Robert Koch Institute (FDZ RKI) publishes the data of population-representative health surveys in the form of public use files (PUFs).The main purpose of health surveys is to generate a maximum amount of information on the state of health and health-related behaviour of Germany's resident population while ensuring an optimum use of funds. The methodology - i.e. the sample design, the principles on operationalization and measurement, and data-collection techniques - is largely modelled on the tried-and-tested methods of empirical social research. Health interview surveys (HIS) use established survey techniques such as filling out questionnaires, computer-assisted telephone interviews (CATI), computer-assisted personal interviews (CAPI), and online polling via the internet or email. The main difference compared to purely sociological surveys lies in the additional biomedical examinations, tests and medical-biochemical measurements, which generate significant added value in addition to the results of the surveys; this part is referred to internationally as the health examination survey (HES).

The Virtual Research Environment (VRE) is an open-source data management platform that enables medical researchers to store, process and share data in compliance with the European Union (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The VRE addresses the present lack of digital research data infrastructures fulfilling the need for (a) data protection for sensitive data, (b) capability to process complex data such as radiologic imaging, (c) flexibility for creating own processing workflows, (d) access to high performance computing. The platform promotes FAIR data principles and reduces barriers to biomedical research and innovation. The VRE offers a web portal with graphical and command-line interfaces, segregated data zones and organizational measures for lawful data onboarding, isolated computing environments where large teams can collaboratively process sensitive data privately, analytics workbench tools for processing, analyzing, and visualizing large datasets, automated ingestion of hospital data sources, project-specific data warehouses for structured storage and retrieval, graph databases to capture and query ontology-based metadata, provenance tracking, version control, and support for automated data extraction and indexing. The VRE is based on a modular and extendable state-of-the art cloud computing framework, a RESTful API, open developer meetings, hackathons, and comprehensive documentation for users, developers, and administrators. The VRE with its concerted technical and organizational measures can be adopted by other research communities and thus facilitates the development of a co-evolving interoperable platform ecosystem with an active research community.
