SUMMARY:Workshop: Generative KI: Urheberrecht und Creative Commons (Andrea Schlotfeldt\, 18.07.2025\, online)
DESCRIPTION:Der Online-Workshop informiert über urheberrechtlichen Fragen bei der Nutzung generativer KI-Systeme. Im Fokus steht dabei die Weiternutzung von KI-Output in Lehrveranstaltungen – auch im Rahmen von offenen Bildungsmaterialien (Open Educational Resources (OER)). \nSysteme generativer KI sind für viele als alltägliches Arbeitsinstrument kaum mehr wegzudenken. Häufig stellen sich den Nutzenden urheberrechtliche Fragen\, einerseits beim Prompten\, aber insbesondere auch bei der Weiternutzung von KI-generierten Inhalten. Inwieweit ist dies zulässig? Besteht eine Kennzeichnungspflicht? Wann sollte von einer Weiternutzung eher abgeraten werden?\nAuch wenn KI-Output im Rahmen offener Bildungsmaterialien (OER) genutzt werden soll\, bestehen Unsicherheiten\, ob dies möglich ist und\, falls ja\, welche Creative-Commons-Lizenz vergeben werden sollte und wie die Lizenzangaben für KI-Inhalte umzusetzen sind. \nZiel der Veranstaltung ist es\, den Teilnehmenden wichtige urheberrechtliche Grundsätze bei Nutzung generativer KI-Systeme zu vermitteln und sie für urheber- und (CC-)lizenzrechtliche Aspekte zu sensibilisieren. Die Teilnehmenden sind herzlich eingeladen\, beispielhaft Nutzungsszenarien zu schildern und Fragen hierzu zu stellen. \nAnmeldung \nDer Workshop richtet sich an Lehrende aller Fächer\, Support-Mitarbeitende\, Modulverantwortliche\, Studiengangentwickler*innen und weitere Interessierte\, die konkrete Umsetzungsbeispiele für KI-integrierende Lehrveranstaltungen kennenlernen möchten. Für die kostenfreie Teilnahme ist ▶ eine Anmeldung erforderlich.  \nReferierende \nAndrea Schlotfeldt ist wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin für juristische Beratung für die Hamburg Open Online University (HOOU) an der Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften Hamburg sowie selbständige Rechtsanwältin\, Dozentin und Referentin mit Schwerpunkt Urheber- und Medienrecht. Sie berät OER-Produzierende in Rechtsangelegenheiten bei der Konzeption und Veröffentlichung ihrer offenen Bildungsmaterialien. Darüber hinaus ist sie mit Fragen des Urheberrechts\, des Datenschutzes und generativer KI in der digitalen Lehre befasst. Weitere Stationen waren das Lizenzmanagement der ZBW – Leibniz-Informationszentrum Wirtschaft sowie die Vertrags- und Lizenzabteilung einer Hamburger Buchverlagsgruppe. \nIm Rahmen der landesweiten Fortbildungsreihe »Künstliche Intelligenz in der Hochschullehre (FO>KI)« setzt das Hochschulnetzwerk Digitalisierung der Lehre Baden-Württemberg (HND-BW) in Kooperation mit dem Zentrum für Mediales Lernen (ZML) am Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT) landesweit Veranstaltungen zur Förderung von KI-Kompetenzen bei Lehrenden\, Support-Mitarbeitenden\, Studiengangentwickler*innen\, Hochschulleitungen und Studierenden an allen Hochschulen in Baden-Württemberg auf. FO>KI wird vom Ministerium für Wissenschaft\, Forschung und Kunst Baden-Württemberg und vom Stifterverband für die Deutsche Wissenschaft gefördert.

SUMMARY:Jetzt mitreden: EU startet öffentliche Konsultation zur Strategie für eine europäische Datenunion
DESCRIPTION:Warum eine neue Datenstrategie?\nSeit der Verabschiedung der EU-Datenstrategie im Jahr 2020 hat sich die digitale Landschaft stark gewandelt: Die rasante Entwicklung generativer Künstlicher Intelligenz\, geopolitische Spannungen und der zunehmende Druck auf europäische Unternehmen\, im internationalen Wettbewerb zu bestehen\, machen eine Aktualisierung notwendig. \nInsbesondere zwei Berichte – der Draghi-Bericht zur wirtschaftlichen Wettbewerbsfähigkeit der EU und der Letta-Bericht zum Binnenmarkt – betonen die strategische Bedeutung eines umfassenden\, sektorenübergreifenden Datenraums. Die neue Initiative soll helfen\, dieses Potenzial systematisch zu heben. \nWas ist geplant?\nDie vorgeschlagene Strategie verfolgt drei zentrale Ziele: \n\n\nInvestitionen fördern und Datenzugang verbessernEs sollen gezielt Datenbestände für Forschung und Innovation – etwa im Bereich KI – erschlossen werden. Start-ups und KMU sollen einfacher Zugang zu hochwertigen Datenquellen erhalten. \n\n\nRegelwerke vereinfachen und Verwaltungsaufwand senkenDer derzeitige Flickenteppich aus nationalen und sektorspezifischen Regelungen soll gestrafft und besser aufeinander abgestimmt werden. Auch digitale Berichtspflichten sollen optimiert werden. \n\n\nInternationale Datenströme strategisch gestaltenDie EU will eine klare internationale Datenstrategie entwickeln\, um Datenimporte und -exporte sicher und effizient zu gestalten – etwa durch bilaterale Vereinbarungen und gemeinsame Standards. \n\n\nWas bedeutet das für Österreich?\nGerade für ein exportorientiertes Land mit starker KMU-Landschaft wie Österreich bietet die Initiative große Chancen. Einheitliche Regelungen und ein funktionierender Datenbinnenmarkt stärken die Wettbewerbsfähigkeit heimischer Betriebe – und bieten gleichzeitig neue Perspektiven für datengetriebene Innovationen im öffentlichen Sektor. \nZudem wird die Rolle öffentlicher Daten hervorgehoben: Behörden und öffentliche Stellen sind zentrale Datenlieferanten und zugleich gefordert\, vertrauenswürdige Rahmenbedingungen für die Weiterverwendung ihrer Daten zu schaffen. \nJetzt Stellung nehmen – Ihre Meinung zählt!\nDie Konsultation ist bis 18. Juli 2025 geöffnet. Rückmeldungen sind in allen 24 EU-Amtssprachen möglich – über das Online-Portal der Kommission: \n👉 Ihre Meinung zählt – Öffentliche Konsultation zur Datenunion \nEingeladen zur Teilnahme sind: \n\n\nBürgerinnen und Bürger \n\n\nUnternehmen und Technologieanbieter \n\n\nForschungseinrichtungen und Hochschulen \n\n\nBehörden und öffentliche Datenlieferanten \n\n\nZivilgesellschaftliche Organisationen und Berufsverbände \n\n\nNutzen Sie die Chance\, die europäische Datenzukunft aktiv mitzugestalten – für ein digitales Europa\, das Innovation und Vertrauen verbindet.

FSCI organizers have sought and found course submissions contributing to and exploring this theme\, though all ideas in scholarly communication were welcome for consideration. The theme has also shaped the institute’s plenary events. \nSo take a look at our FSCI 2025 Courses & Abstracts\, select a course or two – and then Register Today!\nIn a world where AI plays a role in an increasing amount of our workflows\, we all work to increasing draw the academic publishing community towards a world of Open Scholarship\, in various ways and at differing levels. FSCI is a platform for professionals in the field to educate your colleagues about an aspect of this important work. FSCI courses often focus on one particular aspect of this work and provide practical training\, while paying attention to the broader issues at play. Other FSCI courses look more squarely at theoretical problems and explore new solutions. We hope to focus on these components as we present a variety of courses on topics across the scholarly communication ecosphere. Further\, please help us get the word out to your colleagues in research and scholarly communication by sharing this information with your network. As always\, thanks for your assistance in helping FSCI to develop and grow. \nConsider applying for a scholarship for FSCI 2025\nFSCI is the production of a wide array of volunteers; all of the instructors and most involved in planning contribute their time and effort and help us keep the tuition fees for FSCI low. However\, we know that for some in our community of scholars\, even our modest tuition fees are a barrier to participation. To allow full participation by the global FSCI community\, we have set aside a minimum of 100 complementary seats for the most qualified scholarship applicants.  The scholarships will be available to all applicants who participate in Scholarly Communication\, with preference given to both those who demonstrate active support for Open Scholarship in their communities of practice\, and to those interested scholars from the Global South(s). Please fill out this form to apply for a scholarship. Applications will be due by June 20. Decisions will be made by a panel of FSCI volunteers\, and applicants will be notified of their application status as soon as the week of June 16. If you intend to apply\, please do not register for FSCI until you are notified of the status of your scholarship application. If you are awarded a scholarship\, you will receive a discount registration code to apply at checkout.

SUMMARY:EOSC Nodes with federating capabilities for the EOSC Federation
DESCRIPTION:Expected Outcome:Project results are expected to contribute to the following outcomes: \n\nThe EOSC federation will be established as a distributed system of systems\, comprising of independently managed EOSC nodes that collaborate to augment their contribution to EOSC users whilst ensuring resilience of the interconnected systems by supporting the common federating capabilities.\nResearchers will benefit from unified support aimed at integrating their research environments with the EOSC federation and this coordinated assistance will streamline the alignment of research practices with the EOSC ecosystem.\n\nScope:The call aims to further develop the cross-domain EOSC system of systems\, building upon the results of the previous INFRAEOSC calls[1]. The focus is on developing and expanding the EOSC federation through a network of nodes as baseline elements of the federation model. These EOSC nodes will establish a set of essential federating capabilities\, compatible with the EOSC EU Node reference architecture\, following the EOSC Federation Handbook and EOSC interoperability framework. They should have a clearly described identity and offer unique value to EOSC users\, for example representing a specific thematic domain (e.g. data or computing) or geographical area amongst the Horizon Europe participating and associated countries. \nTo become an EOSC node\, the proposals are expected to demonstrate the ability to assess and address the existing gaps regarding the federating capabilities at technical\, legal and organisational level. The proposals are expected to indicate adherence to the EOSC governance structure\, federation policies and capabilities. They should also address business models\, service management procedures\, and technical and semantic interoperability. Furthermore\, the proposals should propose a credible plan to ensure the sustainability of the proposed solutions beyond the project lifespan\, including how to take over or replicate the federating role currently ensured by the EOSC EU Node[2]. \nMore specifically\, the proposals should focus on all of the following aspects: \n\nSatisfy the minimal node requirements as defined by the EOSC tripartite governance[3]\, and go beyond them by further development and refinement of the harmonized participation model\, taking into account the variety of thematic and national dimensions in the EOSC federation. These requirements include:\n\nCompliance with the requirements on the legal status of the organisation;\nCompliance with the requirements aiming at large-scale\, quality service provisioning;\nCapacity to onboard third-party services[4];\nCapacity to contribute to and/or take-over the EOSC federating capabilities;\nAdoption and integration of the EOSC federation rules and policies\, and further refinement and practical adaptation of best practices;\nSupport to effectively monitor and report the activities of the services provided.\n\n\nIntegrate and offer EOSC core federating capabilities pioneered by the EOSC EU Node\, such as Authentication\, Authorisation and Accounting\, Research Catalogues and Knowledge Graph\, Application Workflows\, Monitoring and Helpdesk\nContribute to a robust and coordinated strategy for evolving and sustaining the federated governance model for EOSC by fostering effective collaboration and coordination among the other node operators offering federating capabilities.

SUMMARY:FAIR Integration for Enhanced Research Data in the EOSC ecosystem and beyond
DESCRIPTION:Expected Outcome:Projects are expected to contribute to all of the following expected outcomes: \n\nimproved findability\, accessibility\, interoperability and re-usability (“FAIRness”) of research data and other digital research outputs;\nwider uptake of and compliance with FAIR data principles and practices by national and European research data and metadata providers\, repositories and databases;\noperationalisation of the concept of FAIR digital objects throughout the entire research data lifecycle;\nenhanced and mainstreamed technical specifications for FAIR digital objects to facilitate the creation of digital objects that are FAIR-by-design.\n\nScope:The scope of this call topic is centred on advancing the interoperability and integration of research data within the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC)\, in alignment with the broader context of the Common European Data Spaces and cross-sector collaboration. FAIR digital objects provide a conceptual and implementation framework to develop scalable cross-disciplinary capabilities\, deal with the increasing data volumes and their inherent complexity\, build tools that help to increase trust in data\, create mechanisms to efficiently operate in the domain of scientific assertions\, and promote data interoperability. Proposals should cover all of the following areas and activities: \n\nFAIR-by-Design digital objects creation: the development of tools that enable the creation of digital objects adhering to the FAIR (Findable\, Accessible\, Interoperable\, Reusable) principles both from the “source” or as a result of an analysis.\nAutomated standardisation and data quality assessment: development and provision of automated tools and procedures for standardisation and data quality assessment. This will ensure that data across different domains adhere to common standards\, fostering greater compatibility and enhancing overall data quality.\nOperational data services specification: delivering technical specifications for operational data services that support the transformation of digital objects into FAIR entities. Such services may include the integration of AI-based tools capable of autonomously operating on data repositories\, contributing to the automatic establishment of FAIR practices throughout the research ecosystem.\nInteroperability and training to promote the uptake of open standards: the action should make substantial contributions to the development\, upkeep and widespread adoption of open standards for metadata\, formats\, vocabularies\, semantics and APIs. Activities should foster compatibility among digital objects across different domains\, facilitating seamless data exchange and integration. Training and dissemination activities will facilitate the uptake of these standards\, fostering collaboration and compatibility.\nCollaboration and alignment with Common European Data Spaces: harmonisation of EOSC technical specifications with those of other Common European Data Spaces.\nInteroperability demonstration and content integration: demonstrating the tangible outcomes of applying FAIR tools\, standards\, and specifications will showcase the achieved interoperability and integration\, strengthening the case for data sharing and reuse across disciplines and sectors.\nCross-Sector data utilization: by enhancing content integration from data spaces\, industry\, and beyond\, the reuse of science data in various sectors is to be encouraged. This will ease access to real-life data from other data spaces\, fostering its utilization in research and expanding its impact.\n\nThese activities will have to be developed in accordance with standards and guidelines defined or adopted by EOSC\, promoting data quality and open access practices. To ensure complementarity of outcomes\, proposals are expected to cooperate and align with activities of the EOSC Partnership and to coordinate with relevant initiatives and projects contributing to the development of EOSC\, including projects funded by the call topics HORIZON-INFRA-2023-EOSC-01-04 – ‘Next generation services for operational and sustainable EOSC Core Infrastructure’ and HORIZON-INFRA-2024-EOSC-01-05 – ‘Innovative and customizable services for EOSC Exchange’. In addition\, cooperation is expected with project(s) funded by the call topic HORIZON-INFRA-2025-01-EOSC-01. Finally\, proposals should build on the work delivered by the projects FAIR-IMPACT and FAIRCORE4EOSC\, especially in the areas of interoperability across disciplines and sectors\, as well as in the mainstreaming of creating FAIR-by-Design digital objects. This topic implements the co-programmed European Partnership for the European Open Science Cloud.

SUMMARY:Advancing AI-readiness and Machine-Actionability in the EOSC Ecosystem
DESCRIPTION:Expected Outcome:Project results are expected to contribute to the following outcomes: \n\nEOSC will be advancing AI-readiness and Machine-Actionability (MA) in the ecosystem by offering AI-ready federated infrastructure and easy-to-use platform services for EOSC\, in order to respond to one of the main challenges of research infrastructures for AI in science\, namely the lack of interoperability between AI/ML solutions.\nEOSC will focus on integrating machine-actionable repositories within the ecosystem and demonstrating their reliability and effectiveness by collaborating with repository owners and service providers to implement MA tools and protocols\, ensuring seamless integration with the EOSC EU Node.\n\nScope:Today\, the sustainable FAIRification of data can be a bottleneck towards the goal of a European web of FAIR data and services. The use of AI/ML can significantly help in the process of FAIRification\, data curation and data quality assurance\, close to the source of the data. EOSC shall promote actions that give incentives to further advance AI-readiness and Machine-Actionability in the EOSC federation for FAIRification and to support their application. \nEuropean researchers need access to compute and repository services to develop\, train and validate AI/ML models\, in line with the GenAI4EU initiative and other key initiatives\, like the Apply AI strategy\, based on AI-ready research data from research infrastructures and third-party repositories. The proposed infrastructures should complement the EOSC EU Node capacity and be able to scale to a large number of users within transnational access to high-value datasets from national and European Research Infrastructure and e-Infrastructure ecosystems. \nAI-based assistance tools shall be customised and trained for the discovery and composition of open science resources into custom workflows allowing researchers to discover and interact with open science infrastructures\, combining relevant data\, software and application assets. \nOpen Data and Open Research Software are essential for reliable\, trustworthy\, and transparent AI/ML. They ensure that datasets and algorithms are well documented\, accessible\, and reproducible\, enabling others to validate and understand AI/ML algorithms. This transparency fosters trust\, supports ethical standards\, and ensures compliance with regulations\, particularly important in the field of AI/ML. \nThe proposals should focus on all following aspects: \n\nDevelop and prototype tools to drive machine-actionability in repositories\, data\, and services\, establishing a network of trusted repositories linked to the EOSC EU Node;\n\nformulate open protocols and policies to facilitate effortless data access\, transfer\, processing\, and provenance updates within EOSC’s repository and service network;\ndeliver AI-based capabilities to make interoperable AI/ML solutions and facilitate the setup of custom workflows for research data processing;\noffer tools/services for automatic quality measures of inputs and outputs of the AI/ML models.\n\n\nProvide federated infrastructure services for serving AI models integrating horizontal and thematic EOSC nodes:\n\nensure capacities for AI model retraining and inference;\ntake into account the whole research data life cycle\, including raw data retention before AI modelling.\n\n\nProvide access to an easy-to-use technology platform offering reference implementations and recipes to quickly get started working with AI/ML with limited engineering overhead:\n\npromote and apply state-of-the-art AI/ML operational best practices;\nvalidate reference implementations and share commonly used recipes within EOSC.\n\n\nEstablish and/or provide access to existing AI/ML model repositories and services to serve models for retraining of generic models for specific needs for future predictions and reproducibility:\n\ncreate AI/ML model repository and enhance FAIRness of existing AI/ML models;\noffer services for utilisation of these models\, including fine-tuning and inference\, thus providing the foundational building blocks for the development of AI applications in EOSC.\n\n\nEstablish an EOSC AI/ML competency centre for the pooling of expertise and coordinated support on AI/ML use of data\, compute infrastructure and AI/ML models for the upskilling and technical support of EOSC users and research operators\, as a strategic asset that will enable a new paradigm for science production.\n\nThe proposers should take into account and leverage on the results of relevant projects in the field\, including EOSC Data Commons[1]\, and the other initiatives and projects contributing to the development of EOSC\, especially in the area of machine-actionability and data FAIRification. \nThis topic implements the co-programmed European Partnership for the European Open Science Cloud. \n[1] EOSC Data Commons\, Grant agreement ID: 101188179 https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/101188179

SUMMARY:Data stewards\, skills and training for Open Science and FAIR practices
DESCRIPTION:Expected Outcome:Projects are expected to contribute to all of the following expected outcomes: \n\nDefinition of consistent core curricula for data stewards throughout Europe\, fostering the adoption of Open Science and FAIR principles.\nEnhanced data steward skills\, enhancing their ability to manage and interpret complex data.\nAdvancement of Open Science education throughout all research career stages. Creation and standardisation of open science curricula tailored to researchers at all career stages\, promoting consistency and collaboration in Open Science practices.\nExpansion and strengthening of existing competence networks\, broadening their scope across countries and disciplines and improving their readiness to support the uptake of Open Science and of EOSC. Development of a sustainable coordination network model to support synergies and continued growth.\nMainstreaming transparent\, aligned\, and interoperable Open Science practices and promoting efficiency and trustworthiness in the management of FAIR digital objects.\n\nScope:The uptake of Open Science practices and of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) requires dedicated\, professional profiles for data curation and data management\, as well as equipping researchers with adequate skills and supporting them for the sharing and re-use of FAIR research digital objects. However\, at present\, data stewards and related profiles lack well-defined career paths\, and data sharing and other open science practices are not fully mainstreamed within the research community and are often not recognised in research assessment practices. \nThe objective of this topic is to foster a stronger culture of Open Science and to address gaps related to the professionalisation of data stewards and to the acquisition and recognition of open science and data management skills at all career levels. This requires the identification of consistent core curricula for data stewards\, together with the further development and coordination of competence centres at the European level. \nProposals are expected to cover the following activities: \n\nCoordinating European-level actions to make data steward curricula management consistent and to propose mechanisms to monitor their suitability and possible evolution.\nEnhancing data steward and researcher curricula with Open Science and FAIR practices\, ensuring adaptability at the different contexts\, levels and scientific domains of applicability.\nAddressing diverse data steward levels\, including support staff and researchers.\nCollaborating with existing competence centres to foster Open Science and FAIR networks.\nLeveraging national networks and related institutional initiatives for European-level coordination.\nLaunching outreach programs targeting early-career researchers and less-structured communities.\nOffering support to countries and institutions that are underrepresented and bolstering national competence centre networks.\n\nProposals are expected to build on and align with the European Competence Framework for Researchers (ResearchComp)[1] and with the revised Charter for Researchers[2]\, which underline the importance of Open Science competences and practices in research careers. Proposals should also seek for synergies with the activities of the Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment (CoARA) in order to reach a better recognition of open\, collaborative practices in research assessment. \nTo ensure complementarity of outcomes\, proposals are expected to cooperate and align with activities of the EOSC Partnership and to coordinate with relevant initiatives and projects contributing to the development of EOSC. In particular\, proposals should take account of the results of the Skills4EOSC and FAIR-IMPACT projects and interact with related initiatives aimed at developing competence centres and at improving FAIR data practices in different contexts\, like in research infrastructures\, research performing organisation and higher education institutions. In particular\, cooperation is expected with project(s) funded by call topic HORIZON-INFRA-2025-01-EOSC-02. Proposals are expected to propose adequate measures and tailor its support to different levels and contexts of data stewardship. \nProposals are expected to establish interactions with the operators of the EOSC Federation\, in order to ensure alignment with the policies and practices of the EOSC Federation\, notably on the area of data interoperability standards\, persistent identifiers and others to identify useful tools and resources for the broad EOSC community.

SUMMARY:9th Open Science Retreat: 23-24 September 2025 – apply now! “Diamond OA: Utopian Dream or the Only Fair Future?”
DESCRIPTION:We cordially invite you to the 9th Open Science Retreat – this time with a focus on Diamond Open Access.\nDiamond Open Access has gained increasing attention in recent years as a community-led\, equitable model for scholarly publishing that aligns closely with the principles of Open Science. But is Diamond Open Access the long-awaited solution for equitable scholarly publishing – or merely an idealistic vision? This retreat critically explores the promises and limitations of Diamond OA\, its role in advancing Open Science\, and the role of the scientific community in the success of the model. A view on financing models and a spotlight on successful Diamond OA initiatives will provide practical insights into key success factors and persistent challenges. \nTo guide our discussions\, we propose the following questions: \n\nWhat can the contribution of Diamond OA be to addressing current challenges in scholarly publishing and where does its potential end?\nWhat are effective strategies\, recommendations\, best practices or lessons-learnt to applying AI in a responsible manner for upholding the Open Science principles?\nWhat policy and infrastructure conditions are necessary to ensure Diamond OA can flourish?\n\n  \nJoin us for a critical examination of whether Diamond OA is an innovative model or simply the next battleground in the future of publishing. We are looking forward to an exciting retreat – be part of it!
