DESCRIPTION
Research funding organizations in the Asia Pacific are moving forward to develop support for research data management (RDM), especially for data-intensive research. At the same time, researchers and students are becoming more proactive in sharing datasets to enhance research visibility and impact. The convergence of top-down data policies and bottom-up initiatives is shaping a culture of data management and sharing that supports research integrity and trustworthy science.

This session offers a platform for institutions to share experiences with research data management support in the Asia Pacific. It will address what programs are in place, how they are implemented, how data communities engage with policymakers, and the challenges encountered. Four presenter groups from different research data contexts will share their ongoing stewardship efforts across the region.
