2024 Research Data Policy and Protocol, Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences, Leiden University

June 2024 version of the research data management policy and protocol for the Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences of Leiden University. 

Leiden University ratified its own Data Management Regulations in December 2021 (Regeling Datamanagement, 10.5281/zenodo.5825356), which includes high level recommendations and requirements that apply to all employees, affiliates, and guests who conduct research under the sponsorship of the University. An important provision of the University regulation is that each Faculty develops its own Data Protocol, providing domain-specific elaborations of this latter policy. In line with this provision, the present document is the first official version of the Research Data Policy and Protocol for the Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences (FSW) at Leiden University. It was co-created by the Faculty research data management cluster, research directors of the constitutive institutes of the Faculty as well as researchers with a specific involvment in research data management.
