To better understand the roles, expectations, and perspectives of its membership, EOSC-A is organising a series of consultations in February and March 2026 with Members and Observers to establish a common position on the future of EOSC post-2027.

Input collected during co-creation process will feed into a position paper outlining the preferred governance and funding model for EOSC post-2027. The paper will be presented and voted on at the EOSC-A 13th General Assembly on 28-29 May 2026 in Brussels.
The consultations are organised into four stakeholder groups with two sessions scheduled for each group:
- Mandated Organisations (MOs)
