FAIR data – FAIR play
It’s all a question of setup

The state-wide action day on research data management (RDM) in North Rhine-Westphalia will take place on November 18, 2025. Under the motto “FAIR data – FAIR play: It’s all a question of setup,” the state initiative fdm.nrw and many participating universities will focus on good starting conditions and FAIR play in the handling of research data.

This year, the local information and networking event organized by RWTH Aachen University and Forschungszentrum Jülich (FZJ) will take place at the IT Center. It will highlight key initiatives in FDM and provide a platform for knowledge exchange, networking, and information.
