ENVRI-FAIR D4.7: Policies for common service catalogue, policy landscape in EOSC domain

This document presents the policies planned for the ENVRI-Hub service catalogue within the context of interoperation with EOSC and the FAIR principles. The ENVRI-Hub catalogue is supplied by the Research Infrastructures within ENVRI-FAIR (or more specifically their digital asset suppliers) and so it is necessary for the policies of the RIs to be sufficiently compatible to avoid problems of conflicting policies when accessing digital assets at the RIs from the ENVRI-Hub. The key policy drivers (EOSC Rules of participation, FAIR principles, and ENVRI-Hub initial documents) were documented in D4.6 where policy recommendations for the RIs were made, in order for their policies to be compatible with ENVRI-Hub and hence EOSC and FAIR. The next steps to create policies for the ENVRI-Hub were also documented in D4.6 following ENVRI-FAIR Policy workshop 4 where the approach was discussed. While ENVRI RIs are finalising their policies and their implementation through guidelines (best practice) and IT implementation (technology) this deliverable lays out the policies needed at ENVRI-Hub and the steps to realisation.
