This follow-up to the 2025 Open Science Festival is open to everyone. You don’t need to have attended the festival to participate, and you’re welcome to join one or both sessions!

Session 1: Open Science Without Burnout: Building Healthier Research Culture (10:00-12:00 CEST)

Join burnout coach and data steward, Özgün Ünver, to explore how to engage with openness and transparency without overextending yourself. We’ll discuss setting boundaries, fostering sustainable practices, and building a healthier research culture for everyone. You’ll leave with practical insights—and a reminder that Open Science can be both impactful and sustainable.

Session 2: Community Conversations (13:00-15:00 CEST)

In this session, we’ll explore the common challenges that can leave open science practitioners feeling stuck and share practical, creative ways to move forward. Together, we’ll gather ideas for a little handbook to help everyone feel supported and less alone on their open science journey.
