Is your organisation committed to advancing #OpenScience? 🌍 GRIOS - Global Research Initiative on Open Science is welcoming partnerships with research organisations, funding bodies, and other stakeholders! Hosted at the ESF - European Science Foundation and led by experts from France, Finland, and the Netherlands, GRIOS aims to help the global research community understand which interventions in research culture and practices truly work. As Hans de Jonge (NWO (Dutch Research Council) explains: "As open science becomes mainstream, firmly embedded in policies, and expected in practice, it is more important than ever to understand what works and what doesn’t and thus base our actions on solid evidence." Would your organisation like to partner with GRIOS? Let’s talk! 👉 https://grios.org/contact

Did you know that while #OpenScience principles are widely embraced, implementation remains challenging? 🤔 What truly helps researchers share their work openly, and what barriers still hold back progress? As Marc SCHILTZ, GRIOS - Global Research Initiative on Open Science ambassador, emphasizes, this is exactly why GRIOS was created. Responding to the G7 Science and Technology Ministers’ call, it will be using meta-research methods to analyze existing evidence and develop practical, effective recommendations to inform open science policy worldwide. Proud that ESF - European Science Foundation is hosting GRIOS, supporting international coordination and evidence-based approaches to strengthen research culture globally. 👉 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/dwyaEFx9
