Session
Funders can drive change in the research sector by establishing funding requirements that influence institutions and individuals. Current practices in Australian mean that the metadata available about research practice is often limited, may not be available at all, and may be of a low quality or missing key information. In this presentation you will find out about a range of initiatives led by the Australian Research Council to both use PIDs and to encourage the uptake of PIDs by the Australian research sector in alignment with Australia’s National PID Strategy.
