FAIR-IMPACT is actively engaging with stakeholder communities for the adoption of the FAIR principles. In this direction a group of 12 EOSC FAIR Champions will be on board to act as ambassadors for FAIR, engage their community, and advocate for adoption of the project results. The FAIR Champions will also be involved in facilitating national roadshows in their country, and will contribute to the development of FAIR implementation stories.

The FAIR Champions are highly visible experts actively engaged in analysing and shaping FAIR data policies and practices in their field. They are engaged in identifying research data gaps and needs within their communities, to create broader engagement with FAIR, and to shape and disseminate the outcomes of the FAIR-IMPACT project.

FAIR-IMPACT is looking for Champions who have broad expertise in FAIR policy and/or practice, bring strong research data advocacy experience and excellent communications skills, are driven to help mobilise others to generate more FAIR data on  policy and/or practice level, and are keen to share best practices. In putting together its team of FAIR Champions, FAIR-IMPACT will ensure gender diversity, a balanced geographical and stakeholder representation, and broad interdisciplinary expertise across FAIR policy and practice.

The deadline to apply is Friday 10 March at 17.00 CET. Apply here.
