(Published on 24.01.2023) Research and data simply belong together. Extensive data sets provide the basis for understanding interrelationships and promoting new insights. However, storing data securely and describing it in a comprehensible way can be challenging. Why it is worthwhile nonetheless, how sustainable research data management works and what tips and tricks researchers can use will be shown during the “Love Data Week” from 13 to 17 February 2023. German-language initiatives and advice centres on research data management will offer an extensive programme during the international campaign week around Valentine’s Day..
The safe and competent handling of research data is an important component of good scientific practice. The advisory and service centers of the scientific research institutions, the state initiatives as well as the supra-regionally active associations, NFDI consortia, initiatives and working groups related to research data management have joined forces this year to raise awareness for a more conscious handling of research data within the framework of the international action week “Love Data Week”. To this end, the action partners are offering various formats such as coffee lectures, continuing education courses, podcasts, and information events both online and in person between February 13 and 17, 2023, under the motto “Data: Agent of Change.”
The free offer is aimed at researchers and students of all qualification levels and disciplines, scientific infrastructure and service staff, citizen scientists and all other interested parties and can be accessed at forschungsdaten.info.
An overview of all offers and the participating partners can be found here: https://forschungsdaten.info/fr/fdm-im-deutschsprachigen-raum/deutschland/love-data-week/

GWK Approves Continued Federal and State Funding for NFDI Starting in 2029
At its meeting on July 10, the Joint Science Conference (GWK) adopted a new federal-state agreement (BLV) for the German National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI). This agreement defines the funding and future structure of NFDI starting in 2029. The federal and state governments intend to continue funding NFDI with up to 98.7 million euros per year from 2029 to 2038.
Good news for NFDI: GWK decides to continue funding all consortia of the second round
All ten consortia of the second funding round will receive further funding. This was decided by the Joint Science Conference (GWK) on 10 July. The new funding period for the second project phase will begin in October for BERD@NFDI, DAPHNE4NFDI, FAIRmat, MaRDI, NFDI-MatWerk, NFDI4DataScience, NFDI4Earth, NFDI4Microbiota, PUNCH4NFDI and Text+. The federal and state governments are providing a total of around 71 million euros for this purpose, until the end of 2028.
NFDI consortium FAIRmat wins European Digital Skills Award
The NFDI consortium FAIRmat enables researchers worldwide to embrace a more digital way of working. For this achievement, it has been recognized by the European Commission.
