MEETINGS

We meet 3 times a year, online, for an hour. Generally the meetings are unrecorded, however slides and group notes are made available post-meeting. The focus is on sharing current activities and projects, new developments and resources and discussing interesting problems. A directory of past meeting notes can be found at: https://tiny.cc/DMP-IG

Our next meeting will be on Monday July 29, 2024 - 12pm AEST, 11:30am ACST, 10am AWST, 2pm NZST, REGISTER NOW, and find out what other events you may also like at the ARDC Eventbrite page.


RESOURCES

The ARDC Research Data Management Framework for Institutions has a useful section on Research Data Management Planning for universities and outlines benefits, planning practice considerations, training, culture change, integrations, ethics, essential components and much more.


The Data Repositories CoP has started a useful spreadsheet of Data Repository software used at Australian institutions, to which the DMP IG has added DMP Tools used at Australian Institutions and is available on request to members of either group.
