SURF Research Day 2026

Scarce Resources, Sustainability Questions, Shared responsibility: How to make scarce resources sustainable?
2026-05-19 , Cineac

Whether you want to optimize computing power, data storage, research information or open scholarly communication, we achieve this using scarce resources (infrastructure, expertise, support, etc.). During an interactive workshop, we will explore together what these scarce resources actually are, how we can make the best possible use of the scarce resources we have, and what role each of us plays in this. How does an IT manager, a researcher, a research support staff member, see their roels, how do funders of research think, and how does SURF? And what does this actually mean for your role?


What is the nature of your session?: Policy With whom do you want to connect?:

IT managers, research supporters, funders, researchers and SURF

What is the key take away of your session?:

Defining together the challenge and explore our roles to solve them.
