+The Helmholtz Association is determined to make their data available according to the FAIR principles, thus making it findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable. This is expressed in the "Recommendations for Policies of the Helmholtz Centers on Research Data Management" [1].

+These following recommendations aim to describe procedures to achieve the above-mentioned goals, and identify activities and the relevant stakeholder groups to implement these. This implies that the identified stakeholders assume certain responsibilities in order to make these recommendations work.
-As these goals require certain decisions to be made, we describe the decision processes from high-level to lower levels, resulting in agreed procedures. We then describe the conduct of these procedures with respect to the involved stakeholder groups, their responsibilities and actions needed to be taken.

-The activities may be prioritized to be implemented in a specific order or for a particular stakeholder group, either because they are simple to set up, or because they are prerequisite to other recommended activities. These decisions have to be made on a case by case basis, in order to move forward establishing the envisioned data space.

This includes accountability for publishing credit systems and others. Data citations improve the data set author’s score.
+A very important precondition for the implementation of these recommendations is the **presence of skilled and highly trained data management personnel**, such as data stewards, data curators, and developers for data management and processing tools.
