Research outputs become more valuable once they are shared, allowing others to use them to glean information and build knowledge, and to acknowledge the original authors in a scholarly manner. In today's academic landscape you get credit for publishing the data you produce and share, leading to new opportunities for study. To do so, your data must be Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR). We look at how you can make your data FAIR by sharing and publishing it on UCT's data repository ZivaHub to find out how you can share and publish your data. After this session, DOIs might be your new best friends.

These sessions are open to all postgraduate researchers and staff working within any field of study.
