Final remarks

Are data collected for the annual report the starting point for CRIS+IR development?

Which is the best way to take advantage of available resources?

Who guarantees the quality of data? Who provides authoritative data sources? Which is the best way to integrate local and central

workflows? ….


A possible answer

and

Built on:• human collaboration• rules for resource sharingSupported by:• Institutional, National & European strategies & policies

Built on:• exchanging data between inter-institutional, cross-institutional, European CRIS/OAR
