Getting started with DMP-OPIDoR to create your data management plan
👤The EcoDoR team
Drafting a Data Management Plan can sometimes be complex or even difficult. Fortunately, there are tools available to assist with drafting DMPs. Based on the open-source code DMPRoadmap (Digital Curation Centre, University of California Curation Center) and managed by the Inist-CNRS teams, DMP-OPIDoR is an intuitive and easy-to-use DMP drafting tool. Recommended by the ANR and Recherche Data Gouv, it is the most widely used tool in the French-speaking community and also features an English interface.
This webinar is designed to introduce you to the interface and the various sections of the DMP-OPIDoR tool.

Entity Data Management Plans: Sustainable DMPs—For Whom and For What?
👤Jean-François Dufayard
The practice of Data Management Planning (DMP) is constantly evolving. Beyond the project-based DMP, which is framed by a time-limited project, a more sustainable approach is emerging: the entity-based DMP. Unfortunately, this term is very generic and encompasses contexts that are quite different from one another. Addressing the topic of entity DMPs raises many questions: which entities (platforms, units, etc.)? For what purposes? How can we distinguish an entity DMP from a data policy? What synergies exist with project DMPs, and between entity DMPs? What recommendations can we offer to those wishing to draft an entity DMP? We will address all of these questions interactively with the audience.
