Expression of Interest for the creation of a National Consortium for Research Data Management

The period for expressions of interest in the creation and establishment of a consortium to promote the management and sharing of research data at the national level is now open.

The Foundation for Science and Technology is launching this call for proposals, which will remain open until September 10 and is part of the National Program for Open Science and Open Research Data (PNCADAI). This is a measure integrated into investment RE-C05-i08 – More Digital Science, financed by the Recovery and Resilience Plan (PRR).

The Consortium's main mission will be to promote, create, and develop a networked community of practice for the management of FAIR research data in Portugal, coordinating and supporting the Research Data Management Centers selected by the FCT, as well as ensuring support for convergence with legislation and infrastructure (both national and European).

The deadline for submitting proposals is September 10, 2024, at 11:59 p.m.

The recording of the information session, held on August 1 and promoted by FCT through FCCN – Digital Services, is available for viewing here. You can access the presentation document here.
