Strengthening FAIR data support in a resourceconstrained environment: taking Ulster University forwards in our FAIRenabling journey

FAIR-IMPACT’s RPO support programme aimed to help research performing organisations to better understand their drivers for becoming more FAIRenabling, to self-assess their current FAIR-enabling capacity and develop plans for improvement. During the support programme participants were asked to undertake at least one engagement activity to facilitate awareness raising and/or to enable cooperation and collaboration with peers across the organisation.

The support programme ran between February and October 2024 with a series of ten virtual workshops where participants were introduced to key concepts to support their journey toward becoming more FAIR-enabling, followed by peer exchange workshops and one-toone meetings with FAIR-IMPACT mentors. This FAIR Implementation Story outlines the specific aims and actions of Ulster University in relation to their participation in the RPO support programme.
