D1.4 Data Management Plan – Updated version

The Data Management Plan (DMP) main goal is to cover the data management processes of RURALITIES, ensuring an alignment with Horizon Europe FAIR data principles (data must be findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable). The DMP is a living document which is being released three times along the project, updated with the periodic evaluation and assessment and adding levels of detail and granularity as processes for data collection progress. D1.4 is the second version of the DMP and describes updates in current data management practices and frameworks, establishes links with Ethics and Data Protection regulations, and shows how the different data management policies have been effectively handled within the project. This second version of the DMP provides some updated highlights to be useful to other research projects related to rural development and innovation, as well as to interested stakeholders.
