DANS maintains a strong national presence and is acknowledged internationally as an innovative contributor in the field of research data management. These are among the findings of an independent review committee in its recent evaluation of the institute. The committee observes that DANS has played a meaningful role in advancing the professionalisation of data management, both in the Netherlands and internationally. The evaluation, conducted in June 2024, covers the period from 2017 to 2023. The full report, along with responses from DANS, the Scientific Advisory Board for DANS (WAR), the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW), and the Dutch Research Council (NWO), has now been made publicly available.
