The Data Management Plan or Data Management Plan (DMP) is a methodological document that describes the life cycle of the data collected, generated and processed during a research project, a doctoral thesis, etc.
More and more funding entities like theH2020 and Horizon Europe and the State Plan require the preparation of a DMP. PhD students must also prepare it and present it in the Research Plan.
It must contain information about:
You have the free tool CORA.eiNa DMP (Research Data Management Plan) with templates adapted to the requirements of each funding body (H2020, ERC, State Plan) and the type of research you carry out (research project, doctoral thesis, etc.).
The tool allows you to save, edit and export your WMD, work collaboratively with other researchers and update it during the different phases of your search. Contains help and examples in all sections.
See user guide where all the processes associated with the creation of a data management plan are described, as well as the management of the user account itself.
To create a DMP you can also refer to the guide Data management plans.
Examples of H2020 FAIR Data Management Plans:
The WMD is a living document, which is produced at the beginning of a search and is updated as many times as necessary.
In accordance with what is required in the Academic regulations of the School of Doctorate the data management plan must be submitted as part of the Research plan.
To prepare it you can:

To anonymize data you can use Amnesia, a tool that allows you to delete identifying information (names, postal code, dates of birth...) and publish datasets in accordance with the General regulations for the protection of personal data (EU)
This is a project funded by OpenAIRE2020.
To clean data and transform formats you can use OpenRefine.
This is an open source desktop web application.
