FAIRsFAIR Policy and Practice Survey 2019 data for D3.1_D3.2_D6.1

As part of the EOSC project family the FAIRsFAIR - Fostering Fair Data Practices in Europe - project aims to supply practical solutions for the use of the FAIR data principles throughout the research data life cycle. The FAIRsFAIR project runs from March 2019-February 2022. Landscaping activities have been a core activity during the initial stages of the FAIRsFAIR project and there has been close cooperation with colleagues in Work Package 3 carrying out the FAIR data policy and practice analyses; Work Package 2 on assessing FAIR requirements for interoperability and persistence; Work Package 6 on providing an overview of research communities’ needs for competence centres; and Work Package 7 on mapping RDM policies and support as well as FAIR education offerings in European HEIs. In particular, efforts were made to avoid duplication of effort across the three open consultation and survey instruments developed to assess the current landscape and to define a consistent approach to presenting our findings. As part of the landscape analysis, FAIRsFAIR ran an open consultation on Policy and Practice which was made available via EU Survey from August 2 - September 27, 2019. The consultation was also made accessible from the FAIRsFAIR website. A total of 106 responses were submitted by research support staff from across Europe and beyond. The open consultation included both open-ended and closed questions which sought to identify the different levels of maturity with regards to FAIR practices among disciplines, the range of policies that influence the way that researchers work, and the sources of support currently available to researchers. In developing the questions, FAIRsFAIR worked collaboratively with several related initiatives including the EOSC 5B projects, the Group of European Data Experts in RDA (GEDE), and the EOSC FAIR Working Group and Landscape Working Group to avoid duplication of effort in our information collection. FAIRsFAIR will continue to cooperate with these and other initiatives over the life of the project. The open consultation targeted members of the research support community to gain insights on their views and experiences in relation to implementing the FAIR principles. The open consultation questions were grouped under five broad themes: 1) Practice 2) Policy 3) Repositories 4) Skills 5) Competence centres The data resulting from the open consultation has been used to inform three key FAIRsFAIR deliverables: D3.1 FAIR Data Policy Landscape Analysis D3.2 FAIR Data Practice Analysis D6.1 Overview of Needs for Competence Centre欧洲开放科学云（European Open Science Cloud，EOSC）项目家族中的FAIRsFAIR项目（全称：Fostering Fair Data Practices in Europe，即欧洲促进FAIR数据实践项目）旨在为在研究数据全生命周期中应用FAIR数据原则（Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable）提供切实可行的解决方案。该项目执行周期为2019年3月至2022年2月。 项目初期阶段的现状梳理工作是FAIRsFAIR的核心任务之一，团队与多个工作包（Work Package，WP）的同仁紧密协作：其中工作包3（WP3）负责开展FAIR数据政策与实践分析；工作包2（WP2）聚焦评估互操作性与持久性所需的FAIR数据要求；工作包6（WP6）负责梳理研究社区对能力中心的需求概况；工作包7（WP7）则针对欧洲高等教育机构（Higher Education Institutions，HEIs）的研究数据管理（Research Data Management，RDM）政策与支持服务，以及FAIR数据相关教育资源开展映射梳理工作。 尤为重要的是，为避免重复工作，团队开发了三套开放咨询与调研工具，用于评估当前现状并制定统一的成果呈现方案。 作为现状分析的一部分，FAIRsFAIR于2019年8月2日至9月27日通过欧盟调研平台（EU Survey）发起了一场主题为“政策与实践”的开放咨询活动，该咨询同时可通过FAIRsFAIR官方网站访问。最终共收到来自欧洲及全球各地的科研支持人员提交的106份有效反馈。 本次开放咨询包含开放式与封闭式两类问题，旨在厘清不同学科在FAIR数据实践方面的成熟度层级、影响科研人员工作模式的各类政策，以及当前可为科研人员提供支持的资源渠道。 在设计调研问题的过程中，FAIRsFAIR与多个相关项目团队开展协作，包括EOSC 5B项目、研究数据联盟（Research Data Alliance，RDA）内的欧洲数据专家小组（Group of European Data Experts in RDA，GEDE），以及EOSC FAIR工作组与现状梳理工作组，以避免信息收集环节出现重复工作。 在项目全周期内，FAIRsFAIR将持续与上述及其他相关项目团队保持合作。 本次开放咨询的受访对象为科研支持社区成员，旨在收集他们在落实FAIR数据原则过程中的观点与实践经验。 本次开放咨询的问题被划分为五大核心主题：1）实践；2）政策；3）数据仓储；4）技能；5）能力中心。 本次开放咨询所获取的数据，已为FAIRsFAIR的三项核心交付成果提供了支撑：D3.1《FAIR数据政策现状分析报告》、D3.2《FAIR数据实践分析报告》以及D6.1《能力中心需求概况报告》。
