Open Research Europe: Key Synergies for an Open and Sustainable Platform

The online workshop "Open Research Europe: Key Synergies for an Open and Sustainable Platform" will take place on 9 June 2022, from 14.00 to 15.15 CEST. EUA Deputy Director of Research and Innovation, Vinciane Gaillard, will be a speaker at the event.

With one year of Open Research Europe (ORE) under the belt, it is time to review and address the main challenges brought forward by researchers who have already published with ORE and those who are still hesitant to do so. The platform provides all H2020 and Horizon Europe beneficiaries and their collaborators with an easy, high-quality platform to publish Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe funded research at no cost and in full compliance with the Commission’s open access policies. Despite the indisputable benefits of ORE, a joint effort for advocacy is needed to ensure the success and longevity of the platform.

During this workshop, speakers will discuss how key organisations like EUA and the League of European Research Universities (LERU) are acting as trailblazers for Open Science and Open Access, and how ORE can be an important tool to utilise towards this cause. The most common questions and concerns that researchers have when it comes to publishing through ORE will be discussed, and the importance of ORE advocacy amongst research librarians will be addressed. The workshop will cumulate in a panel discussion designed to create synergies that will cement ORE as key tool that librarians can advocate for, and researchers can use to publish their work in an open and transparent manner.
