- Events (Webinars, workshops, virtual communication campaigns) to promote open infrastructure, discuss and amplify participation and adoption strategies and plans leveraging local initiatives.
- Outreach resource development to deliver content (videos, social media content, podcasts, tutorials, etc.) that documents use cases, success stories, and benefits of DataCite infrastructure in local/regional contexts, including materials in innovative formats and languages other than English.
2. Open Infrastructure development and integration to enable and increase the adoption of DataCite infrastructure and related services, such as:
- Repository, publishing and other system development and implementation to allow organizations to integrate DataCite APIs and metadata
- DataCite API integrations to connect local and national systems with the DataCite Registry
- Development of new tools and systems to obtain additional value from DataCite infrastructure (e.g. visualizations, statistics tools, metadata enrichment tools, CRIS systems, etc.).
