Open Science:The Challenge for Universities

"The IAU Open Science Expert Group brings together representatives from all regions of the world (see members p. 35). The report Open Science: The Challenge for Universities is the first deliverable of the Expert Group, providing an introduction to Open Science and outlining the associated challenges and opportunities for universities. It urges the higher education community to collaborate in shaping the adoption of Open Science principles, recognizing universities as essential contributors to the scientific ecosystem. The report aims to raise awareness among higher education leaders about Open Science and the institutional transformation it requires. Additionally, it informs policymakers and other stakeholders of the critical issues universities encounter in this transition."
