## Lessons learned

One main lesson from the AutSPACEs project is the potential that deep, engaged collaboration between academic researchers, open source developers and a community of volunteer contributors has for shaping and implementing a research project, in particular in a research environment that often is shaped by mutual distrust between "researchers" and "human subject". By approaching each other on eye level, AutSPACEs managed to build a deep and sustained trust, leading to better and more ethical research than usually observed - especially in the fields of data science and AI.
One main lesson from the AutSPACEs project is that deep, engaged collaboration between academic researchers, open source developers and a community of volunteer contributors has significant potential to shape and implement a research project, in particular in a research environment that often is shaped by mutual distrust between "researchers" and "human subject".
By approaching each group as equal collaborators, AutSPACEs managed to build a deep and sustained trust, leading to better and more ethical research than usually observed - especially in the fields of data science and AI.

The project also had to recognize that this approach comes with its own challenges.
It requires a high level of engagement and buy-in from researchers - which not all researchers are willing to do.
