Anna Horváth's activities in the ARP project include the supporting of the understanding and use of the ARP Data Repository; responding to user needs and difficulties; and developing policies and guidelines for its proper operation and use. She aims to make the repository user-friendly and to support the use of the repository by researchers and interested parties by ensuring that it operates as organically and as optimally as possible.

Anna is a sociologist, her main fields of interest being the history and sociology of science and critical archival research in the context of archives. As a contributor to several data management-related projects, she has gained insights into the realm of research data repositories, including the domestic characteristics, and the dilemmas and challenges concerning the creation and daily operation of systems. Anna is particularly interested in specific cases of open science and the publication of research data, which require ethical and/or methodological consideration. Inspired by the democratizing efforts of the World Wide Web, she is keen to support initiatives that promote the widest possible access to research data, within the appropriate legal and research ethics framework.
