At national level, the French Ministry of Research has developed a platform: Recherche Data Gouv (RDG). It has been designed to support research teams in their work of structuring data to make it easy to find, accessible, interoperable and reusable, in other words, in line with the "FAIR" principles. The "FAIR Implementation Workshop - French Data Management Clusters" will present the French data management clusters who aim to be close to research teams so they can provide researchers with initial expertise in rational research data management. Registration is free but mandatory.

The Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment (CoARA) is a group of organisations who work on harmonising the assessment of research. It takes into account practices and activities that maximise the quality and impact of research. It involves basing assessment primarily on qualitative judgment, for which peer review is central, supported by responsible use of quantitative indicators. This FAIR Implementation Workshop - "Assessing national current FAIR-enabling capabilities" will focus on the topic of research assessment to help the selected candidates to draft their FAIR implementation action plan by taking into account the research assessment aspect. Registration is free but mandatory.
