Abstract of Executive Director's presentation at the conference. It reads: In this talk we share the outcomes of a collaboration between The Carpentries and the Generalist Repository Ecosystem Initiative (GREI), an NIH-led effort to enhance data-sharing practices across disciplines. Generalist repositories play a vital role in making research outputs more discoverable and reusable, but researchers need the right skills to maximize their potential. Through this partnership, we aimed to align The Carpentries’ training programs with GREI’s mission by integrating best practices in data management, refining educational resources, and fostering a culture of open science. Our collaboration includes workshops, curriculum development, and community engagement to support researchers in navigating generalist repositories effectively. Join us to explore how this initiative can empower communities, enhance data workflows, and advance open, FAIR-aligned research practices.
