On 13 November 2026, the FDM.SH General Assembly will take place at the ZBW in Kiel. The event provides an opportunity to look back on four years of the state initiative, to recognise developments and achievements to date, and to look ahead together to the future of research data management in Schleswig-Holstein.

FDM.SH General Assembly

After four years of working together, the General Assembly provides an opportunity to recognise the developments within the FDM.SH community and the results achieved. At the same time, we are looking ahead to the coming years: with the current project funding coming to an end on 31 December 2026 and the planned continuation of FDM.SH as an institutional network, a new phase is beginning.

Particular emphasis is therefore placed on the question of what needs and challenges will shape research data management in Schleswig-Holstein in the future, and how FDM.SH can develop accordingly.

Various meetings of the working groups and interest groups, as well as the launch of the new interest group on persistent identifiers (PID), will take place in the morning. Following a group lunch, the plenary session will begin at 2.00 pm.
