Summary:

"The FP-7 RECODE project has published a report that includes policy recommendations, practical guides for developing policies, and resources to expedite the process of policy development and implementation. In order to create the document, titled - Policy recommendations for open access to research data - RECODE identified two main over-arching issues in the mobilisation of open access to research data: a lack of a coherent open data ecosystem; and a lack of attention to the specificity of research practice, processes and data collections.  These findings, along with the horizontal analysis of case studies in relation to the main challenges, have informed these policy recommendations on open access to research data.  The policy recommendations are targeted at key stakeholders: research funders, research institutions, data managers, and publishers. They will assist each of the stakeholders in furthering the goals of open access to research data by providing both over-arching and stakeholder-specific recommendations. These function as suggestions to address and attend to central issues that RECODE identified through the research work.  The full report (PDF) is available here."
