The Dutch Data Prize

Every two years, the Dutch Data Prize is awarded to an individual or a team that makes research data FAIR. In order to have a chance to win this prize, you can nominate a dataset produced by yourself or by another individual or research group. Nominations are restricted to research that was lead or primarily conducted by research-performing organisations in The Netherlands. The deadline for nominating datasets is September 30.

Prize Winning Research Data Practices

The Dutch Data Prize is a valuable recognition of researchers’ contributions to their own field and to the principle of Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR) data. There are many routes to practising FAIR data management and each of the finalists will have the opportunity to share ‘behind the scenes’ details about their research and data management practices in a short address prior to the award ceremony.
