Arnaud Gingold from the CO-OPERAS IN reports:

The CO-OPERAS IN published the reports of all the workshops organized in the past year on the topic of “FAIR data for Social Sciences and Humanities” on Zenodo:

As a first step of its roadmap, CO-OPERAS intended to listen to the communities through a series of workshops held in national languages, in order to facilitate richer and deeper discussions. Between September 2019 and March 2020, CO-OPERAS thus organized five workshops to gather views and needs of Social Sciences and Humanities researchers regarding the FAIRification of their data and publications. The workshops were held in Italy, Portugal, Germany, France and a last international workshop was held in Brussels. The reports are now available on Zenodo:

• Turin: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3999349
• Porto: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3999344
• Coimbra: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3999357
• Göttingen: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3999330
• Paris: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3999351
• Brussels: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3999359

CO-OPERAS also organized a workshop at the Open Science FAIR event in Porto in September 2019, gathering this time researchers, repository managers, and librarians.

As a part of OPERAS RI activities for open scholarly communication in the Social Sciences and Humanities, CO-OPERAS outputs are linked to Zenodo’s OPERAS community.

The workshop outputs gave the first elements for the definition of Implementation Profiles in the perimeter of CO-OPERAS.
