SUMMARY:

Trust is an essential part of open science, FAIR, and the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). This report provides an overview of ongoing trust-relevant activities and discussions that are of interest to CESSDA and its Service Providers (SP). This report first summarises the results of the CESSDA Trust Workshop that took place on January 29, 2021 and then continues to describe the Trust Landscape. The focus starts with CoreTrustSeal as a Trustworthy Digital Repository (TDR) standard for social sciences and humanities and then moves out to wider EOSC perspective and beyond Europe. The final section outlines the CESSDA trust connections and impact. The draft of this report was used as input into the CESSDA Trust workshop.
