One of the notable intersections via the GATE initiative is its alignment with educational innovation in the humanities from CLARIN. A compelling example is the bilingual (Italian and English) training resource "Introduzione ai Dati Linguistici: Standard e Archivi Digitali" (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.13911935) from Zenodo, which introduces students to the research data lifecycle in linguistics, framed through Open Science and FAIR data principles.

Tailored for content creators - educators, trainers, and Open Science advocates - this material bridges the gap between theory and practice. It offers lecturers in university language-related programmes an adaptable toolkit for fostering data literacy and Open Science awareness among students early in their academic journey.

The training’s unique value lies in its bottom-up approach: empowering students to manage their own projects (from Bachelor to PhD level) with a mindset rooted in openness and collaboration, well before they join larger, often international, research teams. It champions open digital collaboration throughout the research data lifecycle and provides concrete pathways for integrating best practices into teaching.

By connecting such resources to the GATE ecosystem, this GATE service not only exemplifies capacity building in the humanities but also illustrates how GATE enables visibility and reuse of domain-specific educational materials as well as their guiding thoughts across communities. Through this, GATE fosters sustainable knowledge exchange and strengthens the infrastructure of Open Science from the ground up.
