Actions to promote and increase awareness of Open Research Data

Activities to promote and increase awareness of Open Research Data aim to disseminate effective methods and practices in the area of publishing and sharing research data among the academic community of Gdańsk University of Technology. The key to the goals set for this initiative is to create a team of qualified data stewards, which is a response to the need to support research workers and PhD students of Gdańsk University of Technology, focused on the scientific disciplines within which research activities are carried out. The activities of data stewards will contribute to improving the quality of scientific research conducted by employees of Gdańsk University of Technology, increasing the number of datasets and articles related to research data they publish, and in the longer term, it will result in an increase in the visibility of their achievements on the international arena.

The activities have been implemented since February 2024.
