Flyer for the 3rd meeting of the UDCC Forum featuring artwork from Anton Labberton entited "Meer aan de voet een berg." The flyer states that the special session of the event is entited "Collaboratively Editing a New Research Data Management Policy Framework" and is led by Pui-Kei Fung and Coosje Veldkamp.
A single sheet document that states: "Research and Knowledge Organisations are impactful primarily through their capacity to bring people together. Therefore, Community is crucial to the generative function and success of Research and Knowledge Organisations. And so, Community formation and maintenance, as undertaken by Community Managers, is a consequential form of labour within Research and Knowledge Organisations. Herein we set out to define Community in the context of Research and Knowledge Institutions, identify the values and practices we promote in people undertaking the work of Community Management, and surface key outcomes in the development of Community."
A retro-futuristically designed flyer inviting participants to join DISC, Data Infrastructure Storage Collective. The flyer's text reads: "The prevalence of preserved, FAIR, open, or transportable data is increasingly significant for all research organisations. Our management systems must meet evolving needs. How might we better understand and utilise research data storage infrastructure at Utrecht University? The Data Infrastructure Storage Collective (DISC) convenes to create a framework to advise on research data storage solutions throughout Utrecht University. Following an agenda-setting meeting, DISC begins meeting once every two weeks for a four month period starting in January. Collaborate to build modular decision frameworks on research data storage. All are welcome. Contact Rene Adelerhof or the UDCC Support Team to join in."
