*****
This is a joint session between the Data Policy Standardisation and Implementation IG and the FAIRsharing WG, in collaboration with the Belmont Forum.
The common thread among these 3 groups is the realization of a common framework for research data policies, which allows for different level of commitments and requirements, according to the stakeholders’ needs; and enables registries to better index the policies, making them discoverable, searchable and comparable.
The Data Policy Standardisation and Implementation IG will share and seek feedback on the latest draft of the journal research data policy master framework in the run-up to Plenary and provide an update on their activities to date. . Formal links and common areas of interest with the FAIRsharing WG will also be identified. This WG is in the process of defining a new phase of its activities, and the FAIRsharing registry is already working to enhance the description and discoverability of the data policies, inter-linked to the databases, repositories and standards recommended. Another related project on standardising Data Accessibility Statements (DASs) - a key part of journal data policy - is managed by the Belmont Forum, a group of funding agencies; this work will also be presented and discussed. DASs are common feature of standardised journal data policies proposed by the Data Policy Standardisation and Implementation IG and are also a tool that enables funding agencies to support and monitor compliance with research data policies. The Belmont Forum project plans to submit its final recommendations to its Principals’ Plenary in October 2018 and aims to report its status, findings and learning opportunities at RDA 12th Plenary.
