<div dir="ltr">Dear Colleagues,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>After an extensive period of public commentary and after
conducting test certifications, the ICSU World Data System
(WDS) and the Data Seal of Approval (DSA) Board are pleased to
announce the availability of the first version of their
universal and unified <b>Core Trustworthy Data Repository </b><b>Requirements.</b><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The catalogue of requirements was developed through a
DSA–WDS partnership Working Group within the Research Data
Alliance (RDA). The group built on inherent complementarity
between the criteria previously established by the two
organizations to harmonize unified and universal requirements
reflecting the core characteristics of trustworthy data
repositories.</div>
<div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The DSA Board and the WDS Scientific Committee are
working together to further align their</div>
<div>certification procedures and ensure that the research
community will have a single, clear refere nce
point for seeking Core Trustworthy Data Repository
certification.</div>
