In 2017, RAiD was a budding new concept and the early beginnings of a technical system for identifying and tracking research projects. The idea of RAiD as a project identifier itself came out of a project - an Australian project to better track the research data lifecycle which put research projects at centre stage. Today, RAiD is an ISO standard for Project Identifiers (23527:2022) with a...
From open data to open methods
Observation, interpretation, and communication are key elements of research.

Methodology – the derivation of results and conclusions from the data – is as critical to the understanding and trust on scientific outcomes....
Open Research Data (ORD) is fundamental to the transparency and reproducibility of scientific results. It fosters scientific exchange and networking. In line with ORD strategies and funding agencies' requirements, research data should be published as openly as possible. Despite the advantages ORD brings to research, however, the publication of research data can be subject to restrictions. This...
In an era where data is central to scientific discovery, innovation, and public policy, Chile is taking significant steps toward developing a comprehensive national strategy for FAIR data management. This presentation introduces the Estrategia FAIR, a multi-institutional initiative aimed at embedding the principles of Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability (FAIR) into...
Public trust in governments, organizations and institutions that collect, protect, share and use health data is critical.

Community-based, not-for-profit organizations are critical partners in public interest research across disciplines. This presentation explores how community engaged researchers, data stewards, and librarians can embed data management training for community partners into existing workflows by leveraging data curation as a source of knowledge about training needs.
While it is well-known that...

Recent technological progress has significantly enhanced our capacity to link person-level data across diverse sectors for research in Australia. Key advancements include: legislation to facilitate data access and availability, streamlined governance processes, enriched metadata, more efficient data linkage, and enhanced statistical methods and training. Collectively these...
Strategic and responsible management of research data is essential for Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) such as Universidad Nacional in Costa Rica, particularly within the context of Low and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) given the existing challenges such as budgetary constraints, demands for transparency, and increasing expectations concerning social, economic, and environmental...
