Abstract

The FAIR principle, widely recognized as a foundational guideline for research data management, ensures the technical usability of data but has limitations in addressing responsibility and ethical considerations in the processes of data collection and utilization. To overcome these limitations, this study introduces the CARE principle, which emphasizes the rights of data providers and community-based ethical responsibility. Based on the complementary relationship between the FAIR and CARE principles, an integrated research data management governance model is proposed. To this end, international implementation cases of the CARE principle—such as Open Context, Local Contexts, Te Mana Raraunga, and Tribal Research Codes—were examined to derive practical implications applicable to research data management systems. The proposed integrated governance model is meaningful in that it safeguards community rights and autonomy throughout the entire research data lifecycle, including collection, storage, sharing, and reuse, while promoting responsible data use that respects cultural diversity and ethical values.
