How do I make my data/software FAIR?
Information event on the FAIR Data and Software Award Lower Saxony 2026
15 June 2026, 10:00-10:45 a.m.
How do I make my data/software FAIR?
Research data and research software are central components of modern science. But how can datasets and software be published in such a way that they are findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable in the long term? What requirements do the FAIR principles and FAIR4RS place on scientific practice - and how can researchers implement them in practice?
The event offers a practical introduction to the FAIR principles for research data and research software, taking into account the criteria of this year's FAIR Data and Software Award Lower Saxony of the Lower Saxony State Initiative for Research Data Management. The award honours outstanding data publications and software publications that are based on the FAIR or FAIR4RS principles and thus make an important contribution to transparent, reproducible and reusable research.
The event is aimed at researchers from all disciplines, research data management staff and anyone interested in professionally publishing their research data or software and preparing for a possible submission to the award.
Further information on the call for entries can be found on the official website.
The event is organised by the State Initiative for Research Data Management Lower Saxony(FDM-NDS). FDM-NDS is a joint project under the umbrella of Hochschule.digital Niedersachsen and is funded as part of zukunft.niedersachsen, a funding programme of the Lower Saxony Ministry of Science and Culture (MWK) and the Volkswagen Foundation.
