Module 2 handbook
Evaluating the enabling environment
You should evaluate the feasibility of an investment involving FAIR and safeguarded data by
conducting a broad landscape review of data policies and regulatory frameworks relevant to the geography, relationships with state governments and technological capacity.
You will find this process helpful to:
- flag any major legal or regulatory barriers to the use of data in projects
- flag cultural considerations and norms when starting a new investment process in a country or region
- maximise impact by ensuring investments are designed in respect to the enabling environment
- identify opportunities for investments that directly support the wider enabling environment
