Newsletters

Archive

Since the start of the project implementation in September 2022, we have published a total of 14 OPUS newsletters featuring both OPUS updates and general Open Science news.

WP1 (State-of-the-Art): Reviewed existing literature and identified key experts, initiatives, and networks related to research assessment and Open Science (including creating a database of over 150 experts, identifying 36 relevant Horizon Europe projects, and mapping 34 relevant networks for the project).

Here is the list of the deliverables from WP1:

WP3 (Framework): Developed a Researcher Assessment Framework (RAF) to recognise the wide diversity of activities conducted by researchers, developed an Open Science Career Assessment Matrix (OSCAM2) to incentivise and reward Open Science practices by researchers, and supported the pilot organisations.

Here is the list of the deliverables from WP3:

Deliverable Licence DOI
D2.1 – Interventions to Test in the Pilots CC-BY 4.0 10.5281/zenodo.10686426
D2.2 – Baseline Audit of Interventions to Test in the Pilots CC-BY 4.0 10.5281/zenodo.14047372
D2.3 – Intermediate Evaluation of Interventions Tested in the Pilots CC-BY 4.0 10.5281/zenodo.14044873
D2.4 – Final Evaluation of Interventions Tested in the Pilots CC-BY 4.0 10.5281/zenodo.14672615
D2.5 – Interventions for Open Science CC-BY 4.0 10.5281/zenodo.14672685

WP4 (Pilots): Three RPOs and two RFOs piloted the RAF at their organisations. This included reviewing existing researcher assessment practices, selecting relevant indicators from the RAF with a focus on Open Science, developing action plans to implement the selected indicators, creating cohorts of participating researchers, and monitoring the implementation of the pilots.

Here is the list of the deliverables from WP4:

Deliverable Licence DOI
D4.1 – Initial Action Plans to Implement the Pilots CC-BY 4.0 10.5281/zenodo.14047148
D4.2 – Initial Mutual Learning Exercise on the Pilots CC-BY 4.0 10.5281/zenodo.14046850
D4.3 – Final Action Plans to Implement the Pilots CC-BY 4.0 10.5281/zenodo.14046982
D4.4 – Final Mutual Learning Exercise on the Pilots CC-BY 4.0 10.5281/zenodo.14672770

WP5 (Policy): Published policy briefs to inform stakeholders about key exploitable results of the project and helped to align the project with Open Science initiatives such as the UNESCO Recommendation on Open Science.

Here is the list of the deliverables from WP5:

Deliverable Licence DOI
D5.1 – Initial Policy Brief with Feedback for EC CC-BY 4.0 10.5281/zenodo.10664123
