DCC / RDA Europe – Self-assessing Research Data Management and FAIR-enabling Capabilities

Online

The Digital Curation Centre is pleased to announce a professional development opportunity, co-hosted with RDA Europe, designed specifically for professionals in research support roles. Our half-day workshop taking place next month will equip you with the skills and knowledge to assess and improve your organisation's research data management (RDM) and FAIR-enabling capabilities. This interactive workshop will introduce you to the concept of self-assessment, providing you with practical guidance on how to evaluate your organisations’ capabilities to support RDM and the production and reuse of FAIR data.  Through hands-on activities and real-world scenario discussions, you will gain essential skills in conducting these assessments and learn how to implement, interpret, and use the results to drive organisational improvements.

International Digital Curation Conference: IDCC27

Lisbon , Portugal

IDCC27 will take place in Lisbon in February 27th. The call for submissions is now open!
The 21st edition of the International Digital Curation Conference(IDCC27) will take place in Lisbon, Portugal from 9 - 12 February 2027. The main theme of the conference is ”FAIR DO's: Centring People in the Stewardship and Curation of Digital Objects.” The FAIR principles emphasise machine actionability, but the increasing integration of artificial intelligence systems into data infrastructure carries the risk of marginalising people in the planning, management, and practice of digital curation. The theme of this year’s conference acknowledges the crucial role of people in making digital objects FAIR.
