In many research disciplines, the expertise and effort required to make data truly FAIR—Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable—remain vastly underestimated. Researchers often face tight timelines, limited resources, and a lack of specialized knowledge, leaving valuable datasets under-documented, siloed, or simply unusable for future research.

This is where CaSDaR steps in.

We’re building a dedicated Network+ for Data Stewards, designed to close the gap between data creation and reuse. By embedding data stewardship throughout the research lifecycle, we empower institutions and individuals to ensure that data are not just stored—but shared, sustained, and impactful.

Our approach is community-driven and action-oriented. Through flagship events, targeted support, and hands-on training, we’re investing in a culture where making data FAIR isn’t an afterthought—it’s second nature.

Join us as we highlight the role of data stewards and ensure that you get the most of research data.
