#  Background and purpose of a Data Management Plan

The GREEN-WIN Project participates in the **Open Research Data Pilot** , which
aims to improve and maximize access to research data generated by the project.
The project consortium has decided to participate in this pilot on a voluntary
basis, as stated in the article 29.3 of the Grant Agreement (p. 48). The
GREEN-WIN Project will therefore be monitored and receive specific support as
a participant in the pilot.

As stated in the “ _Guidelines on Open Access to scientific publication and
research data in_ _Horizon 2020_ ”, the Open Research Data Pilot applies to
two types of data: 1. the data needed to validate the results presented in
scientific publications;

2\. other data as specified within the **data management plan (DMP)** .

A DMP is a document outlining _how the research data collected or generated
will be handled_ during a research project, and after the project is
completed. The DMP describes _what data will be collected / generated_ and
following what _methodology and standards_ , whether and _how this data will
be shared and/or made open_ , and _how it will be curated and preserved_ .

The “ _Guidelines on Data Management in Horizon 2020_ ” states that a first
version of the DMP must be provided within six months of the project, but that
the DMP is not a fixed document; it evolves and gains more precision and
substance during the lifespan of the project. The DMP would need to be updated
at least by the mid-term and final review to fine-tune it to the data
generated and the uses identified by the consortium since not all data or
potential uses are clear from the start.

#  Data set description

##  Type of data generated

According to the Grant Agreement Annex 1 (Description of Action) Part B (p.
33), the following data will be collected and generated during the GREEN-WIN
project:

  * Qualitative data on relevant policies, policy processes and institutions, including description of actors, interests and actor-networks at national (WP2) and regional to local levels (WP4, WP5-7). 

  

  * Data on business models described through a standard protocol template associated with estimated capital needs (WP4, WP5-7). 

  

  * Quantitative data on financial flows, international trade and flows of goods. 

  

  * Quantitative data on key macroeconomic indicators, environmental and social impacts (mitigation pathways of WP3). 

  

Public output papers of Green-Win project will include:

  * Project deliverables and milestones 

  

  * Scientific publications 

  

  * Conference and workshop presentations 

  

  * Policy briefs 

  

  * Newsletters 

  

  * Posters/Flyers 

  

  * Blogs 

  

##  Methods of data collection

Both primary and secondary data will be collected.

  * Primary data on win-win solutions, green business models and enabling environments will be collected via interviews, workshops and participatory observation in field trips and business collaborations/partnerships, e.g. in the case studies of WP5, 6 & WP7. This includes both quantitative and qualitative data. 

  

  * Primary data will also be generated by the macroeconomic modelling of WP3. 

  

  * Secondary data will be obtained via databases (Bloomberg, Thompson Reuters, etc.) and the review of policy documents and scientific literature. 

  

Furthermore, both quantitative and qualitative data will be collected on win-
win solutions and green business models via tailor-made templates (WP4).

All work-package leaders are responsible for data management within their
work-package. The overall process is overseen by the project coordinator
(Jochen Hinkel, jochen.hinkel@globalclimateforum.org) and the project
administrator (Daria Korsun, daria.korsun@globalclimateforum.org).

##  Formats

Qualitative data of interview and workshop may be collected through audio
recordings or concurrent note-taking.

  * Text documents - .doc, .docx, .pdf or .odt files 

  

  * Images - .png, .jpg and .tif files 

  

  * Audio - .mp3, .flac and .wav files 

  

  * Video – .mp4 files 

  

Quantitative data will be stored as

  * Tabular data - .csv .xls, .xlsx or .csv files. 

  

#  Standards and metadata

##  Metadata used and metadata standard

Data will be documented following the common standards provided by Horizon
2020 guidance.

  * The terms “European Union (EU)” and “Horizon 2020 (H2020)” 

  

  * The name of the action, acronym and the grant number 

  

  * The publication date, and the length of embargo period of applicable 

  

  * The authors 

  

  * A persistent identifier 

  

It also includes a description of the document’s content (summary or blog) and
key words (tags) for search.

Scientific publications deposited in a repository will include bibliographic
metadata required by the publisher and use a standard identification mechanism
such as Digital Object Identifiers (DOI). Internally, all Green-Win partners
use a version numbers format as such: V0, V1, V2, etc for submission of the
project papers.

#  Data sharing

##  Ownership

The ownership policy is described in the Consortium Agreement section 8 (p.
15) and in the Grant Agreement Article 26 (pp. 43-45). In particular:

  * “Results are owned by the beneficiary who generates them” (art. 26.1). 

  

  * Detailed procedure for joint-ownership is stipulated in article 26.2. 

  

  * Article 26.3 describes the procedure to follow when results obtained by a beneficiary are generated by a third party (transfer of rights, licenses…). 

  

  * Beneficiaries have the obligation to protect results generated during the project that could be commercially exploited, and when protection is possible, reasonable and justified (Article 27.1). In the case that the beneficiary intends not to protect the results, the Agency may take over ownership under specific conditions described in article 26.4. 

  

The ownership of specific results might be protected using Creative Common
Attribution Licenses (CC-BY or ODB-By), as stated in the Grant Agreement Annex
1 (Description of Action) Part B, p. 33.

##  Access to data generated/collected

Datasets will be made available either attached to a published article or
published in existing data repositories (cf. table in section 5). Internally,
the data is stored on OwnCloud platform accessible to all consortium partners.
Externally, the data is accessible on the Green-Win website (green-win-
project.eu/deliverables and green-win-project.eu/publications) and on GGKP
platform (greengrowthknowledge.org/resources). Data concerning topics of
climate change mitigation is also stored on Climate Change Mitigation Platform
(climatechangemitigation.eu/about/related-eu-projects/green-win/). The data is
available in one of the formats specified in 2.3 Format section. No special
software tools are needed.

We will thereby follow the requirements of publishers concerning the
accessibility of datasets underlying a research article.

Data collected/generated but not yet published will remain inaccessible to the
public.

Furthermore, certain types of data will remain unavailable to the public
including: - Data originating from proprietary databases or under license, -
Confidential, private or personal data (following section 4.3).

##  Specifics regarding anonymity

For data collected in interviews and workshops, data handling may need to
adhere to practices that ensure the anonymity of research participants is
maintained. Whether anonymity needs to be maintained is determined by choice
of the research participant and recorded in the GREEN-WIN Informed Consent
Forms, which must be completed by all research participants prior to
participating in the project (See D9.1 and D9.2). Maintaining the anonymity of
participants, when this has been requested, will take precedence over the
requirement to make data publicly available. The procedures for ensuring
anonymity of those research participants who have elected to remain anonymous
have been described in D9.5.

#  Archiving and preservation

##  Data storage

Copies of datasets are stored:

  * On the internal website, 

  

  * On local computers (of the data producer and of the PMO). 

  

The internal website is backed up on a server and synchronized to local
computers everyday. We use an Owncloud server to store and archive the data,
which is passwordprotected and encrypted (https).

##  Data preservation

The Green-Win project website will be accessible a year after the end of the
project (December 2018). At the end of the project all the output papers will
be stored on the GGKP platform as well. The OwnCloud server storing the data
will be kept up and running for one year after the end of the project.
Afterwards, all data and files on the server will be archived on the GCF file
server for 5 years. Some partners will also store the datasets on their own
servers, which will also be publicly available (Table 1).
