SUMMARY:FOR2026 Conference: The Future of Open Research: Reliable\, Responsible\, Equitable
DESCRIPTION:The future of open research is uncertain. On the one hand\, decades of activism and institutional support have placed the value and significance of intelligent strategies and formats for open research (and its dissemination) beyond doubt. Openness is central to the development of trustworthy\, accountable\, collaborative\, and socially engaged knowledge. On the other hand\, open research measures need to be tailored to diverse research conditions around the globe and across domains\, which in turn requires substantial investment\, local engagement\, responsiveness to the ethical and social dimensions of inquiry\, and attention to diversity\, equity\, and inclusion. \nWhile the implementation of open science principles is certainly facilitated by ever more accessible digital technologies and training programmes\, for many researchers around the world\, acquiring the expertise and skills to engage in open research practices remains elusive. Exposure to open research initiatives often happens as an end-user rather than as an active contributor. This is because well-resourced environments produce the tools\, set the research goals\, define the standards and methods\, which leads to them benefiting disproportionally from the opportunities. This makes even the best-intentioned projects into opportunities for the best-resourced environments (which are often in charge of producing open science tools) to impose their own understanding of research goals\, standards\, and methods on everybody else. Therefore\, without domain- and location-specific input\, the risk is that open research amplifies existing inequities and discrimination in the production\, use\, and evaluation of knowledge\, thereby inflicting damage to the research system instead of the promised improvements. And this is not to mention the ongoing debates over how politically unpalatable open science may be\, the extent to which open research has been appropriated by commercial entities such as large publishing companies and digital platforms\, the fraught intersection between open science and artificial intelligence\, and the ongoing difficulties in supporting and maintaining open research activities and tools in the long term. \nThis conference brings together scholars\, activists\, and policymakers to consider this challenging landscape and discuss the future of open research. Our goal is to facilitate the development of open research practices explicitly geared to serve the public interest\, which involves interrogating what may constitute that ‘public interest’ to different audiences and in different locations around the world. A central element for our discussions will be the development of a Munich Manifesto for Equitable Open Research\, detailing ways to utilise open research to foster reliable\, responsible\, and equitable forms of inquiry. A draft text of the manifesto will be circulated two weeks before the conference to all participants\, and one session of the conference will be dedicated to discussing and finalising the declaration and its possible signatories. \nWe call for contributions by researchers across all fields of knowledge\, including the arts and humanities\, policy-makers interested in research and development\, representatives of scholarly and commercial institutions involved in research\, and civil society associations engaged in knowledge production.

SUMMARY:Sprache / Macht / Daten
DESCRIPTION:Wie sprechen wir über unsere Welt? Und wer legt die Begriffe\, Bedeutungen und Beziehungen fest? Mit der steigenden Menge an Daten und den technologischen Möglichkeiten\, diese zu verknüpfen\, verschieben sich auch Machtgefüge – mit teils massiven Folgen. Denn wer Daten sammelt\, speichert und modelliert\, beeinflusst\, wie Wissen entsteht und welche Perspektiven und Erzählungen (un)sichtbar werden. \nUm das Spannungsverhältnis zwischen Sprache\, Macht und Daten im digitalen Kulturerbe gemeinsam zu beleuchten\, lädt das Bundesministerium für Kunst und Kultur (BMWKMS) mit dem Kulturpool\, der Österreichischen Forschungsförderungsgesellschaft (FFG)\, der Topothek und dem kärnten.museum zum Stakeholder Forum 2026\, am 5.-6. Mai 2026 in Klagenfurt ein. \nWie können Museen\, Archive\, Bibliotheken und Akteure wie Kulturpool ihre Verantwortung wahrnehmen? Welche Infrastrukturen und Voraussetzungen sind zur Öffnung und Vernetzung von Sammlungen notwendig? \nUnd was braucht es\, um die nachhaltige Nutzung\, interdisziplinäre Forschung sowie die verantwortungsvolle und innovative Vermittlung von Kulturerbe-Daten zu fördern?

SUMMARY:KU Leuven Open Science Day
DESCRIPTION:Open Science is an integral part of today’s research. It encompasses a wide range of practices and outputs across all stages of the research lifecycle. For instance\, researchers share their publications via repositories\, publish in Open Access journals\, and disseminate early findings through preprints. They make their data FAIR\, preregister their research protocols\, and engage the public through Citizen Science initiatives. \nChallenges include selecting the most appropriate channel for publishing research\, considering the economic implications of this choice\, as well as managing the learning curve and time investment required to implement certain Open Science principles. At the same time\, researchers must navigate various considerations\, including GDPR compliance\, intellectual property rights\, and research security. KU Leuven is committed to Open Science\, guided by the principle: “as open as possible\, as closed as necessary.” \nThe Open Science Day is an opportunity for researchers of the KU Leuven Association to take part in this discussion\, to showcase their own Open Science efforts\, to shed a light on difficulties they might encounter\, to share experiences and solutions.

SUMMARY:Open Science Conference 2026
DESCRIPTION:This one-day hybrid event will bring together researchers\, professional services staff and key stakeholders\, with the aim to advance open science in the social sciences. Building on the work of the CIVICA Open Science Communities\, this event aims to build capacity and promote Open Science in the CIVICA partner institutions. \nThe programme will feature keynotes\, panels\, lightning talks\, and workshops. Our aim is to highlight the specific opportunities and challenges that open science brings to the social sciences\, and to invite discussion about best practices between disciplines. \nThis will be a hybrid event\, and will take place at LSE. \nHow to apply\nAny submissions on opening the social sciences are welcome\, and CIVICA si especially keen to receive proposals on the following topics: \n\nOpen Educational Resources (OER)\nInteraction between Open Science and AI\nManaging and sharing data in the social sciences\nOpen access monographs\n\nPlease contact library.openresearch@lse.ac.uk for more information.
