Two new reports from Sonraí project on the critical need for professionalisation of data stewardship and training needs data stewards and the wider research community.
Our vision is a network of data stewards to support Ireland's transition to a FAIR and open research data landscape.
Research data stewardship is core enabler of engagement with FAIR and Open Data, effective data management and reduction in research waste. As the role of data steward grows in importance, the need for professionalisation and tailored learning pathways has become critical. Over the past 2 years we have engaged in broad consultation across the research community. This has culminated in 2 reports on professionalisation and data stewardship training now available on our website https://lnkd.in/eSDd3vx3 Sincere thanks to Sonraí project partners and those who participated in the interviews for their time and contributions and to our funder the National Open Research Forum Jenny O'Neill Junwen Luo Darren Dahly PhD Brendan Palmer Orla Murphy Chris Burbidge Johanna Archbold Maeve Hynes Marcus Munafò Aoife Coffey
