Shaping and Aligning Research Data Management Policies (5th LEARN Workshop)

The five-partner project, LEARN (Leaders Activating Research Networks), addresses the challenges of existing, disparate e-infrastructures and the global needs of research data. It raises awareness of Research Data Management (RDM) and policy issues for institutions by maximizing the visibility of the existing LERU Roadmap for Research Data, issued by the League of European Research Universities in 2013. To promote policy development and use, LEARN will develop an RDM policy model, as well as a toolkit to support implementation at institutional levels.
