Summary
The uptake of Open Science practices and of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) requires dedicated, professional profiles for data curation and data management, as well as equipping researchers with adequate skills and supporting them for the sharing and re-use of FAIR research digital objects.
However, at present, data stewards and related profiles lack well-defined career paths, and data sharing and other open science practices are not fully mainstreamed within the research community and are often not recognised in research assessment practices.
Detailed Call Description
Proposals are expected to cover the following activities:
- Coordinating European-level actions to make data steward curricula management consistent and to propose mechanisms to monitor their suitability and possible evolution.
- Enhancing data steward and researcher curricula with Open Science and FAIR practices, ensuring adaptability at the different contexts, levels and scientific domains of applicability.
- Addressing diverse data steward levels, including support staff and researchers.
- Collaborating with existing competence centres to foster Open Science and FAIR networks.
- Leveraging national networks and related institutional initiatives for European-level coordination.
- Launching outreach programs targeting early-career researchers and less-structured communities.
- Offering support to countries and institutions that are underrepresented and bolstering national competence centre networks.
Proposals are expected to build on and align with the European Competence Framework for Researchers (ResearchComp) and with the revised Charter for Researchers, which underline the importance of Open Science competences and practices in research careers. Proposals should also seek for synergies with the activities of the Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment (CoARA) in order to reach a better recognition of open, collaborative practices in research assessment.
