The document discusses plans for a task force on research data management (RDM) as part of the OpenAIRE Advance project. The RDM task force will work to establish working groups to examine different elements of the digital research lifecycle. It will gather examples of good RDM practices and standards. The task force will also scope current and future needs of National Open Access Desks to support RDM. The goal is to increase knowledge of RDM among project partners and support open data and FAIR data activities. A separate section discusses plans for open science training through a helpdesk. The helpdesk will provide practical guidance on open science principles and develop training materials and case studies in collaboration with other projects and infrastructures.
