This is a general trend, although there is&nbsp;some variation pertaining to funder expectations.&nbsp;For example, funders vary in their requirements for timing of DMP submission: some require DMPs at the application stage while others ask for the DMP after a grant is awarded.&nbsp;Some funders, for example, the US NIH, have expanded the scope of data management and sharing requirements to include all grant programs [3], not just their larger grants [4].&nbsp;<br><br>An ever-increasing number of academic journals have adopted data-sharing policies [5] and require authors to deposit data in trusted repositories, obtain DOIs for data sets, provide data availability statements, and cite secondary data appropriately.&nbsp;<br><br>Research societies, including the American Psychological Association [6], the American Chemical Society [7], and the American Geophysical Union [8] have developed educational programs and initiatives, open data requirements, and guidance for researchers in their disciplines. These initiatives vary between societies. International networks of disciplinary data archives, such as the Consortium of European Social Science Data Archives (CESSDA) [9] were formed to provide technology and services for domain researchers across countries and infrastructures.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>The international Registry of Research Data Repositories&nbsp;is a great example of the global adoption of data deposit through the use of trusted data repositories.

[1] <a href=\"https:\/\/science.gc.ca\/site\/science\/en\/interagency-research-funding\/policies-and-guidelines\/research-data-management\/tri-agency-research-data-management-policy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Policy<\/a> also recognizes that different disciplines, areas of research, and modes of inquiry will have different RDM standards. [2]&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Qualitative data thus falls into the scope of The Tri-Agency RDM Policy. Developing a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.library.yorku.ca\/web\/research-learn\/research\/rdm\/#dmp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Data Management Plan<\/a> (DMP) will enable researchers who collect and analyze qualitative data to apply RDM best practices suitable for qualitative data throughout their research data life cycle. DMP sub-sections on data ethics, data security, data storage and backup, and data sharing and preservation are especially important for researchers to gather resources and balance the needs of an open and collaborative research environment with the needs of safeguarding research, data, and vulnerable research participants, in all stages of qualitative data management.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although qualitative data is within the scope of Tri-Agency RDM Policy and the DMP tool will benefit qualitative data management, <a href=\"https:\/\/science.gc.ca\/site\/science\/en\/interagency-research-funding\/policies-and-guidelines\/research-data-management\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the Tri-Agency RDM Policy<\/a> is not an open data policy in general, and it does not require open data sharing for all funded research.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cGrant recipients are not required to share their data. However, the agencies expect researchers to provide appropriate access to the data where ethical, cultural, legal and commercial requirements allow, and in accordance with the FAIR principles and the standards of their disciplines. Whenever possible, these data, metadata and code should be linked to the publication with a persistent digital identifier.\u201d<\/em> [2]&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tri-Agency RDM policy recognizes that not all data is sharable because of ethical, cultural, legal, and commercial restrictions. Therefore, as with other types of research data, qualitative data may need to be destroyed or kept closely and securely. For example, it may not be feasible to de-identify data when there is a high risk of re-identifying or relinking data, and\/or exposure of the data might cause harm to the participants or their communities, and\/or the topic of the research is highly sensitive. Researchers can check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.5281\/zenodo.4270548\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u201cCan I Share My Data\u201d guide<\/a> when considering conditions of sharing data involving human participants, developed based on the <a href=\"https:\/\/ethics.gc.ca\/eng\/policy-politique_tcps2-eptc2_2018.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TCPS2<\/a>. [3] In addition, data use and reuse agreements, national security risks, commercial contracts, intellectual property law, indigenous data governance, and community partnership protocols could all potentially prevent qualitative (and quantitative) data from being publicly sharable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, it is possible that qualitative data can be managed and prepared well and shared ethically and legally, if there are no ethical, legal, cultural, or commercial concerns.
