Data Stewardship in Germany - DSG
Welcome to the Data Stewardship in Germany community website!
Our vision is that data stewards in Germany will advance from being a disparate group of practitioners to becoming a cohesive, empowered, and recognised driving force for transformation in research.
We have issued a manifesto to assert the importance of data stewardship and its various profiles. It sets out our shared vision, mission, and strategic priorities for building a strong and sustainable community.
First steps towards a data stewardship community
- DSgG 2022: The FDM Working Group of the TU9 libraries launched the series of workshops "Data Stewardship goes Germany".
- DSgG 2023: Setting up a mailing list to meet the growing need for community building
- DSgG 2024: Using a Community Canvas, the aspirations, challenges, experiences and questions of the data stewards were gathered and linked together. This led to the formation of three working groups, which continue to foster a sense of community between the annual meetings.
Working groups
Vision & Strategy
Develops strategies for building a sustainable, collaborative and professional data stewardship community in Germany. The focus is on establishing Data Stewardship as a strategic element within research institutions, engaging key policy-makers and professionalising the role of data stewards. To ensure long-term sustainability, governance models were discussed which are designed to strike a balance between structure, flexibility and active participation.
Challenges of Data Stewardship
It identifies key challenges in the day-to-day work of data stewards, such as those relating to their role, technical or legal hurdles, motivating researchers to practise active RDM, or finding and selecting suitable materials. Particular emphasis was placed on the need for institutional recognition and technical infrastructure, accompanied by ongoing dialogue and collaboration within the community.
Channels & Yellow Pages
The aim is to create a platform for the DSG community that is accessible to all, in order to promote communication, collaboration and the exchange of knowledge.
