Extending the reach of FAIR to other digital objects
Turning FAIR into practice: what is the problem?
These high-level FAIR Guiding Principles precede implementation choices, and do not suggest any speci鍖c technology, standard, or
implementation-solution; moreover, the Principles are not, themselves, a standard or a speci鍖cation. They act as a guide to data
publishers and stewards to assist them in evaluating whether their particular implementation choices are rendering their digital research
artefacts Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable.
Turning FAIR into practice: what is the problem?
It is a set of guiding principles that provide for a continuum of
increasing reusability, via many different implementations

Objectives:
 To collect data on the level of maturity with
respect to FAIR data implementation
 To assess responsiveness and readiness of
research data repositories in terms of
implementation of FAIR principles
Scope:
 All fields of science
 Survey of researchers: 15066 responses
 Desk research; case studies; FAIRness
assessment
And not everything that can be measured matters!
Strive for the FAIR enough!
Follow your data journey
and your needs!
More importantly in the current tools the tests
used and the result given, are not comparable!!
The cottage industry of FAIR evaluation
fairassist.org
As of July 2023, there
are 25 independent
evaluation tools!
Turning FAIR into reality requires we:
 deliver a number of research infrastructures and tools
 implement standards for data and metadata
 address policies, education and training
 overcome technical, social and cultural challenges
 identify motivators, credit and rewards mechanisms
The road to FAIR data
Let's keep building and sharing
good research data management practices!
