Sonraí – Irish Data Stewardship Network aims to establish a national network which will foster, enable, and advocate for the development of research data management and data stewards nationally and are hosting a series of roadshows in research performing organisations across Ireland with the aim of raising awareness of the role of data stewards, highlighting the need for more and to help those involved in research, helping existing researchers working with data to recognise their activities as data stewardship.
