Data Stewardship Wizard in the FAIR Ecosystem

Data Stewardship Wizard as a tool supporting the creation of smart data management plans entered a new collaboration with important stakeholders of the FAIR Ecosystem. Together with other tools such as CEDAR, FAIRsharing, or Castor EDC and organisations including GO FAIR and ZonMw (the Netherlands Organisation for Health Research and Development), the DS Wizard becomes a part of a lifecycle that covers the process of FAIR Data Management on its all stages. It supports the researchers from planning and applying for funding up to storing data and metadata to FAIR storages. The DS Wizard already provides integrations, for example, with FAIRsharing that provides a high-quality curated source of databases, standards, and policies. Other integrations and helpful features are planned for the collaboration. The ultimate goal of the project is to help researchers, data stewards, and funders to automate the process, communicate efficiently and focus on FAIR research instead of administration.
