Open Science, la roadmap della LERU | La Statale News

[From Google Translation] For LERU, the League of European Research Universities, the possibilities opened up by Open Science can ensure greater transparency and a better response to the needs of interdisciplinary research and training, as well as greater efficiency and productivity in tackling innovative challenges. With an official document, issued in conjunction with the decisions of the Council of the European Union on the European Open Science Cloud, LERU reaffirms the importance of Open Science for the academic and scientific world, defining it as a unique opportunity to transform the circulation of ideas within it and to open up to a different relationship with society. For this transformation to become effective, however, there is a need for spaces for negotiation that will facilitate the transition towards a new way of sharing scientific studies. That is why in its document Leru addresses all the fundamental aspects of Open Science for each of the eight areas identified by the European Commission. From the future of academic publications to FAIR data and the European Open Science Cloud, from research integrity to citizen science, LERU highlights the benefits and cost of future challenges and highlights the implications of an innovative approach to knowledge, which requires extensive productive interaction with external stakeholders. Aware that the complexity of the transition processes towards Open Science is different for each specific institution, LERU provides universities with a series of guidelines on how to manage the transition to Open Science at an institutional level, as well as parameters to measure progress. The document, which is in no way intended to be exhaustive, is proposed as a roadmap that allows each university to draw up its own strategy and plan times and ways to achieve its path towards Open Science.
