<strong>About FAIRsFAIR</strong> </p>
<p class="bodytext">In the context of the efforts for the
implementation of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) the
FAIRsFAIR project aims to supply practical solutions to
integrate FAIR data principles throughout the research data
life cycle. Emphasis is on fostering a FAIR data culture and
the uptake of good practices in making data FAIR. The
consortium will focus on all scientific communities for
supporting, creating, further developing and implementing a
common scheme to ensure data development, wide uptake of and
compliance with FAIR data principles and practices by data
producers. It will also focus on national and European
research data providers and repositories contributing to the
EOSC. Furthermore, the consortium will closely collaborate
with other relevant (global) projects and initiatives already
on the way (e. g. GO-FAIR, Research Data Alliance (RDA), World
Data System (WDS), CODATA). The project will provide a
platform for using and implementing the FAIR principles in the
day-to-day work of national and European research data
providers and repositories. It will closely cooperate with a
range of related projects including the ESFRI cluster projects
(e. g. SSHOC, PANOSC, ENVRI FAIR, ESCAPE and EOSCLife) and the
EOSC coordination structure developed in the existing
EOSCpilot and EOSC-hub projects. As part of FAIRsFAIR, the
University of Göttingen will contribute to work packages on
FAIR Data Policy and Practices and the development a FAIR data
competence framework and embedding of FAIR data education in
university programmes and doctoral training.<br>
