Open Science

The SAB considers the extent to which the RG involves stakeholders, if possible and relevant, in the preparation and execution of the aims and strategy. It also considers to which extent the RG opens its work to other researchers and social stakeholders in its strategy and policy context. Furthermore, the committee considers whether the RG reuses data where possible; how it stores the research data according to the FAIR4 principles; how it makes its research data, methods, and materials available; and when publications are available through open access. Even if Open Science was not yet considered by the research unit for the past period, the assessment committee evaluates the RG’s considerations and plans about Open Science. In the self-evaluation, the RG reflects on how it involves stakeholders, to which extent the RG opens its work to other researchers and social stakeholders, how it pays attention to other aspects of open science and what its plans are in this respect.
