NbS Task Force 1: Shared Data Management Plan

Resource description:

This concise Shared Data Management Plan has been developed to support collaboration
between research and innovation projects funded under the Horizon 2020 and Horizon
Europe programmes, supported by the European Commission. The plan has been coproduced by members of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) Task Force 1 on data and knowledge sharing, under the NetworkNature project.

The plan is designed to guide collaboration rather than be prescriptive, and it is intended to
work alongside the data management plans developed by individual projects.

The plan supports the principles that data should be findable, accessible, interoperable and
reusable (FAIR) as a framework to follow when designing a Data Management Plan. It includes principles promoting open data; sharing case studies of NbS implementation; sharing metadata; defining levels of access; documenting the provenance of data; using free and open-source software; and ensuring long term availability of data.
