Wiggins Plenary PPSR2012
The document discusses the importance of responsible data management for participatory science and research (PPSR) projects. It emphasizes that PPSR data has value and potential to advance science if managed properly. The author's vision is for PPSR data to be treated equally to other scientific data and for all PPSR projects to have data policies, management plans, shared data, and appropriate tools and resources for handling data. The document encourages PPSR researchers to see data management not as separate but integrated into the entire research process.
