Research Data Policies
UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) have agreed Common Principles on Data Research. "Publicly funded research data are a public good, produced in the public interest, which should be made openly available with as few restrictions as possible in a timely and responsible manner."
These principles form the basis of many of the funder data policies. Further information can be found in the UKRI guidance for best practice in the management of research data.
The Digital Curation Centre has a helpful summary of data policies for various funders.
Select your funder from the list below for more information about their requirements. You should also consult individual data policies relevant to your research. Check with the Research and Knowledge Exchange Team if you're unsure about the policies for a particular funder/scheme.
