Kikapu - UWC Research Data Repository
UWC researchers are encouraged to make use of Kikapu, UWC’s online institutional research data repository. It serves as a publishing and access platform for research data and scholarly outputs, and it simplifies the process of making data FAIR. Moreover, it has been shown that sharing data increases citations and boosts research metrics.
Kikapu is powered by Figshare for Institutions and is available to all students and staff at UWC. To login, UWC users simply use their UWC username and password.
