Our task areas and measures Work Programme
2020 – 2025 First Phase
In the first project phase (2020–2025), NFDI4Culture divided its work programme into six operative task areas that were aligned to the different stages of the research data life cycle, thereby allowing for reasonable overlaps and cross-sectional flexibility. A seventh task area encompassed all governance and administrative measures and joins together communication and decision-making processes.
2025 – 2030 Second Phase
In the second project phase, NFDI4Culture develops its work programme into a consolidated, process-oriented infrastructure. The seven task areas of the first phase are reorganised into four functional areas: This brings together community support, data quality, interoperable services, shared infrastructure and sustainable operation in an integrated framework for the long-term operation of NFDI4Culture.
