Examples of FAIR and safeguarded data

Data sharing in India

What were the challenges?

Cereal Systems Initiative for South Asia (CSISA) aimed to embed FAIR data in activities.

They found challenges in:

  • putting in place the right data sharing agreements
  • getting support from those who had fears of data security, privacy and trust
How did they overcome the challenges?

CABI and ODI supported CSISA and its community using:

  • a series of training courses
  • accompanying policy advice

This helped CSISA and its community overcome fears, realise benefits and put in place new data sharing agreements.
