The FIDELIS project (HORIZON-INFRA-2024-EOSC-01-03) aims to establish, over the next three years, a healthy, vibrant and self-sustaining network of Trustworthy Digital Repositories (TDRs) that will foster a supportive open science environment and guarantee FAIR data sharing, now and in the future.
Within its three-year lifetime, FIDELIS will set up, develop, and operate a European network of trustworthy repositories that will support the development and growth of TDRs within the EOSC ecosystem; foster harmonisation and interoperability across repositories to enable an EOSC federation of TDRs; and strengthen the upskilling of repositories and expansion of the network through an active training and support programme.
DANS is involved throughout the project’s activities; it leads the activities on Repository Training & Support which will provide grants and guidance to repositories, as well as training on repository development and management, and support peer-to-peer mentoring programmes in order to initiate, strengthen, and consolidate the networks of and between repositories. Furthermore, DANS leads activities with regard to Sustainable business model development and testing, evolving and sustaining network value-add.
