UM Research Data Management Community Meeting – The Role of NWO in Accelerating Open Science Implementation

On this occasion, we will welcome Marta Teperek. Marta is the program leader for FAIR Data at Open Science NL at NWO (Nederlandse Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek). Her talk will focus on the role of NWO in the implementation of FAIR and open science principles. The invitation is for an open discussion on the topic and for us to share our views with her as support staff, researchers, and others in the community.

Agenda:
12.30 – 13.00: Lunch

13.00 – 13.45: Presentation

Title: The role of NWO in accelerating open science implementation

Abstract:
Implementing open science, including responsible RDM practices, requires a culture change and it is a complex endeavour that necessitates coordinated efforts from various stakeholders. Research funders in particular can have significant influence in driving cultural change toward open science, as they can impact all five essential elements of culture change: 1. Policy (make it required); 2. Incentives (make it rewarding); 3. Communities (make it normative); 4. User Interface/Experience (make it easy) and 5. Infrastructure (make it possible). In her talk, Marta will illustrate this by a few concrete examples of how the Dutch Research Council (NWO) takes a leading role in fostering the implementation of open science, with particular emphasis on RDM.
