Engaging researchers with FAIRNESS

The “FAIR Implementation Workshop – Engaging researchers with FAIRness” will take place on 2 February 2024 10:00-12:00 CET. Confirm your registration below. Note: Registration for the workshop is free but mandatory.

The aim of this workshop is to introduce methods for supporting the engagement of research communities in the FAIR data movement, both as data producers and users. The focus is on the importance of national level initiatives and policies. Drawing from a span of different experiences, including the EOSC ‘Researcher Engagement & Adoption Task Force (REA TF), the workshop will share insights on engaging research communities. The challenges at both EOSC and the national level are similar, requiring the engagement of diverse stakeholders from various scientific communities with distinct approaches to research data. The workshop will include discussions on potential methodologies that can be implemented to effectively communicate with a wide-ranging community and activity involve them in the dynamic of FAIR data.
