Solutions and help

You may find the enabling environment in-country is not compatible at all, or in part, with the needs of FAIR and safeguarded data.

In this case, you should consider some or all of the following actions:

  1. Pause the proposal and focus on building an enabling environment
  2. Amend the proposal so it works within the constraints
  3. Engage relevant stakeholders to consider how to overcome the challenges
  4. Highlight where there are structural issues that may need more strategic intervention

Who can help?

If you need help to understand the enabling environment, consider engaging with the stakeholders listed before:

  • regulators
  • advocates
  • international bodies and experts
  • companies that provide services
  • researchers
  • citizens and local communities
