Aleksandra LaziΔ, PhD"Sustaining the (volunteer) human infrastructure of Open Science involves more than just identifying new funding streams. We also need to think about how to sustain the workers and communities themselves.
Volunteer labour, such as that involved in rescuing data in times of crisis, can be rewarding but also emotionally draining and full of uncertainties, demanding considered mechanisms for community support."
