The Working Group on Funding Open Science and Research

The working group is established by the National Steering Group on Open Science and Research with the objective of designing a funding model for open science and creating a supporting action plan for all areas of openness. The working group is set to meet for the first time on May 30, 2023, and has a two-year term of office.

The group consists of a wide-ranging representation of actors who fund and direct research and higher education, research organizations, enablers of open science and research, as well as NGOs promoting research transparency.
