As the national node of a European research infrastructure for language resources, the consortium contributes to translating FAIR and Open Science principles into practice by integrating technical, methodological, and training dimensions. Its activities combine several coordinated components: FAIRification workflows and ontology-based metadata mediation to enhance semantic interoperability across infrastructures; the refactoring and exposure of services through a federated API gateway; and the implementation of a Linguistic Linked Open Data (LLOD) pilot for the validation, transformation, and publication of interoperable RDF datasets. A national training ecosystem {---} comprising a training platform and a FAIR learning library {---} supports capacity building and the creation of FAIR-by-design learning materials. Finally, a permanent research observatory monitors community practices and needs, providing evidence-based insights for the continuous improvement of services and training provision. Together, these components demonstrate a coherent strategy for implementing FAIR and Open Science at the national level, while ensuring alignment with major European and national initiatives in the SSH data ecosystem."
