RDA in Sweden

RDA Sweden:
Promoting RDM best practices across disciplines

RDA Sweden is a national node of the Research Data Alliance. As such, we will promote and foster best practices in research data management, and work to increase awareness of RDA and research data-related issues in Sweden. RDA Sweden will contribute to the adoption of common solutions and increased FAIRness in the national research data landscape, both within specific fields and across disciplines.

The Swedish National Data Service (SND) is the coordinator of the RDA Sweden node, which brings together actors from the Swedish research data management ecosystem, including most of Sweden's institutes of higher education. This broad range of participants gives the Swedish national node insight and access to almost all major research data producers in Sweden. It also places RDA Sweden in a unique position to promote and facilitate the adoption of RDA outputs and recommendations, as well as actively support and encourage the participation of Sweden-based researchers in the global creation of new community guidelines and outputs by RDA groups.

Our activities in Sweden are announced on the SND website.
