Kanata Declaration 2020

The Kanata Declaration reflects a broad consensus from the Research Data Management (RDM) community on priorities for the data management component of the emerging Digital Research Infrastructure (DRI) Strategy. The intended targets are first and foremost Canadian researchers, but also the New DRI Organization (NDRIO), as well as decision makers and participants in the broader research community. 

This is a major revision of the 2019 Kanata Declaration which emerged from the 2019 NDSF Summit. Key updates include the incorporation of feedback from the 2020 NDSF Summit Breakout sessions, collaborative notes kept during the Summit, and feedback on each of the original Declaration Statements that were solicited via a survey tool from February to April 2020.
