Research Data WG
Objectives and tasks
The joint Forschungsdaten von DINI e.V. WG (founded in 2014) and nestor share the goal of supporting interdisciplinary and inter-institutional liaison, as well as the coordination of activities related to the topics of research data and research data management in the German-speaking countries.

The WG cooperates locally, nationally and internationally, as well as on a discipline-specific and interdisciplinary basis with other initiatives to advance research data management in Germany in a coordinated manner.
Key topics include
- Long-term preservation of research data
- Research data policies
- Data management plans
- Qualification of / training for different actors
- Institutional use of persistent identifiers
- Discussion of legal framework in collaboration with the alliance initiative
- Cooperation models
- Selection and evaluation of research data
- Metadata for research data in cooperation with DINI-WG KIM
- Research data as an integral part of virtual research environments
The DINI/nestor WG provides a platform in two ways: it uses and participates in the Web-based wiki platform www.forschungsdaten.org and it is also a platform in the sense of a communication network for the staff involved.
