SUMMARY:OPERAS 2026 & SCIROS Conference
DESCRIPTION:Research infrastructures (RIs) are often visualised as a collection of servers\, cables\, and code. However\, at its core\, a research infrastructure is a boundary object: a multifaceted entity that sits at the intersection of different social worlds. It is the common ground where researchers\, librarians\, publishers\, policymakers\, and engineers meet to cooperate despite their varying perspectives and needs. \nIn the OPERAS community\, we understand that an infrastructure for Open Science is not merely a technical utility but a living network and hub of technology\, people\, and know-how. These infrastructures function by linking action across multiple scales – from the specific needs of a local research lab to national strategies\, European frameworks (like EOSC)\, and global scholarly networks. Furthermore\, they integrate the interests of the entire scholarly ecosystem – including researchers\, publishers\, libraries\, media\, and non-profit organisations – to form a scholarly-driven\, inclusive\, and dedicated infrastructure. This conference explores the “connective tissue” of our work. Building on the values of inclusion\, scholarly-driven governance\, and community interaction\, we will discuss how RIs can address the structural and systemic challenges of the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH). \nAs Research Infrastructures grow and mature into formal organisational entities – such as the European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC) or other sustainable legal frameworks – they increasingly serve as critical conduits between the diverse communities they unite and the audiences they serve. The specific organisational form an RI adopts creates unique opportunities to facilitate “knowledge travel” across various epistemic cultures. It is through these varied organisational models – linking the grassroots innovation of localised initiatives with the institutional power of international entities – that Research Infrastructures act as essential enablers of science for the benefit of both scholars and society at large. \nThis conference is jointly organised by the OPERAS Research Infrastructure and the SCIROS project\, both of which have been actively exploring the above issues within the Open Science landscape. OPERAS\, an infrastructure for scholarly communication in SSH\, has been growing for almost a decade and is planning to become a European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC) in the upcoming years. SCIROS\, launched in 2024\, brings a fresh and ambitious perspective\, building a vibrant and diverse network of researchers and research-performing organisations devoted to deepening the understanding of Open Science\, fostering new approaches to its theory\, and strengthening the OS practices and infrastructure ecosystem through collaboration. \nBy bringing together the OPERAS ecosystem and the SCIROS research network\, the conference creates a unique platform for the entire Open Science community to engage in reflection\, dialogue\, and knowledge exchange across theory\, empirical study\, and infrastructure development. In this way\, the conference theme\, “One network\, many possibilities. Strengthening the OPERAS community\,” comes to life\, showing how a connected yet diverse network can expand opportunities for collaboration\, innovation\, and sustainable growth in Open Science.

SUMMARY:Webinar Making meaningful data work together Exploring interoperability\, semantic artefacts\, and scalable solutions with ATRIUM and LUMEN
DESCRIPTION:What does it take for research data to travel across disciplines\, languages\, and borders? A webinar on 12 May\, 11 CEST\, will explore how interoperability and semantic artefacts\, such as shared vocabularies\, ontologies\, and metadata schemas\, can transform the way research data is shared\, reused\, and scaled across Arts\, Social Sciences\, and Humanities. \nThe session will unpack why interoperability matters and clarify the role and value of semantic artefacts. Drawing on the FAIR principles\, the speakers will examine key challenges in data integration and will present concrete solutions to address them. They will also emphasise the growing need to industrialise the creation and management of semantic artefacts to make research infrastructures more efficient\, sustainable\, and interoperable at scale. \nThis online session\, organised jointly by ATRIUM and LUMEN EU-funded projects\, is aimed at project communities and researchers working with semantic artefacts: including ontologies\, controlled vocabularies\, and metadata schemas. \nSpeakers: \n\nMassimiliano Carloni (OEAW / ATRIUM)\nJulien Homo (Foxcub / ATRIUM & LUMEN)\nFlorian Lemoine (e-Science Data Factory / LUMEN)\n\nYou can register here. \nAbout ATRIUM: ATRIUM aims to exploit and strengthen complementarities between leading European infrastructures – DARIAH\, ARIADNE\, CLARIN\, and OPERAS – in order to provide vastly improved access to state-of-the-art services available to researchers across countries\, languages\, domains and media. \nAbout LUMEN:The LUMEN project aims to advance cross-domain collaboration and discovery processes in four academic fields: Mathematics (Maths)\, Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH)\, Earth System (ES) and Molecular Dynamics (MD). Through interdisciplinary solutions spanning all four domains\, LUMEN sets out to significantly improve discovery by innovation\, simplifying initial research phases and facilitating access to advanced AI-powered tools for researchers.

SUMMARY:10th Open Science Retreat
DESCRIPTION:You are cordially invited to the 10th Open Science Retreat marking the final edition of this series. In this retreat\, the focus will be on the impact of rising authoritarianism and geopolitical tensions on Open Science practices: \nFundamental scientific principles and findings are under unprecedented attack: Disinformation and science scepticism has reached new levels\, threatening the very foundations of democracy and science. Autocratic governments are attempting to restrict academic freedom and to use science and research to legitimise their very own political narratives and agendas. \nAt the same time\, geopolitical tensions are deepening\, leading to increased security concerns in science and research\, potentially leading to less openness\, collaboration and communication among researchers around the globe. Last but not least\, these developments are also having a significant impact on the availability of research infrastructures and Open Science materials. Do our societies need more data sovereignty to meet these challenges? \nTo guide the discussions\, the  would like to address the following questions will be addressed: \nHow can Open Science – with its emphasis on transparency\, collaboration\, equality of opportunities and reproducibility of scientific results – be sustained in the light of these global developments?\nWhat measures can we\, as an international community of Open Science practitioners\, take to ensure that Open Science is firmly established as the default mode of doing science in an increasingly challenging environment? \n\nIn particular\, how can we meet the challenges in areas like\n\nendangered data\, surveys and other Open Science materials?\nendangered research infrastructures for science and research\n\n\nCan greater data sovereignty help us overcome some of the challenges we face in Open Science\, or are there other approaches that might be more promising?\nWe are looking forward to an exciting retreat – be part of it!\n\n

SUMMARY:KU Leuven Open Science Day
DESCRIPTION:Open Science is an integral part of today’s research. It encompasses a wide range of practices and outputs across all stages of the research lifecycle. For instance\, researchers share their publications via repositories\, publish in Open Access journals\, and disseminate early findings through preprints. They make their data FAIR\, preregister their research protocols\, and engage the public through Citizen Science initiatives. \nChallenges include selecting the most appropriate channel for publishing research\, considering the economic implications of this choice\, as well as managing the learning curve and time investment required to implement certain Open Science principles. At the same time\, researchers must navigate various considerations\, including GDPR compliance\, intellectual property rights\, and research security. KU Leuven is committed to Open Science\, guided by the principle: “as open as possible\, as closed as necessary.” \nThe Open Science Day is an opportunity for researchers of the KU Leuven Association to take part in this discussion\, to showcase their own Open Science efforts\, to shed a light on difficulties they might encounter\, to share experiences and solutions.

SUMMARY:FOR2026 Conference: The Future of Open Research: Reliable\, Responsible\, Equitable
DESCRIPTION:The future of open research is uncertain. On the one hand\, decades of activism and institutional support have placed the value and significance of intelligent strategies and formats for open research (and its dissemination) beyond doubt. Openness is central to the development of trustworthy\, accountable\, collaborative\, and socially engaged knowledge. On the other hand\, open research measures need to be tailored to diverse research conditions around the globe and across domains\, which in turn requires substantial investment\, local engagement\, responsiveness to the ethical and social dimensions of inquiry\, and attention to diversity\, equity\, and inclusion. \nWhile the implementation of open science principles is certainly facilitated by ever more accessible digital technologies and training programmes\, for many researchers around the world\, acquiring the expertise and skills to engage in open research practices remains elusive. Exposure to open research initiatives often happens as an end-user rather than as an active contributor. This is because well-resourced environments produce the tools\, set the research goals\, define the standards and methods\, which leads to them benefiting disproportionally from the opportunities. This makes even the best-intentioned projects into opportunities for the best-resourced environments (which are often in charge of producing open science tools) to impose their own understanding of research goals\, standards\, and methods on everybody else. Therefore\, without domain- and location-specific input\, the risk is that open research amplifies existing inequities and discrimination in the production\, use\, and evaluation of knowledge\, thereby inflicting damage to the research system instead of the promised improvements. And this is not to mention the ongoing debates over how politically unpalatable open science may be\, the extent to which open research has been appropriated by commercial entities such as large publishing companies and digital platforms\, the fraught intersection between open science and artificial intelligence\, and the ongoing difficulties in supporting and maintaining open research activities and tools in the long term. \nThis conference brings together scholars\, activists\, and policymakers to consider this challenging landscape and discuss the future of open research. Our goal is to facilitate the development of open research practices explicitly geared to serve the public interest\, which involves interrogating what may constitute that ‘public interest’ to different audiences and in different locations around the world. A central element for our discussions will be the development of a Munich Manifesto for Equitable Open Research\, detailing ways to utilise open research to foster reliable\, responsible\, and equitable forms of inquiry. A draft text of the manifesto will be circulated two weeks before the conference to all participants\, and one session of the conference will be dedicated to discussing and finalising the declaration and its possible signatories. \nWe call for contributions by researchers across all fields of knowledge\, including the arts and humanities\, policy-makers interested in research and development\, representatives of scholarly and commercial institutions involved in research\, and civil society associations engaged in knowledge production.

SUMMARY:The LUMEN Data Mesh: Connecting Science Across Domains Through Community-owned Data
DESCRIPTION:A climate scientist discovers a sociology dataset that transforms her research. A mathematician finds Earth observation data that validates his model; these scenarios are exactly what the LUMEN Data Mesh is designed to make possible. \nToday\, scientific data is often locked within disciplinary silos. Communities maintain their own catalogues\, standards\, and vocabularies\, and for good reason: they know their data best. But what if they could make it discoverable by others\, without giving up control? \nThe LUMEN Data Mesh offers a decentralised alternative to traditional centralised platforms. Built around the concepts of data products and data contracts\, it lets each scientific community retain full ownership and governance of its data\, while making it findable and reusable across domains. This framework will serve as the technological cornerstone of the LUMEN Meta-Search Service. \nIn this webinar\, we’ll walk you through the architecture\, show you how it works with a concrete cross-domain scenario\, and (most importantly) we want to hear from you: what cross-domain data challenges do you face\, and how could a federated approach help? \nFormat: A 90-minute interactive webinar combining a 30-minute presentation\, a 15-minute live walkthrough of a cross-domain scenario\, and a 30-minute participatory session powered by Mentimeter. The webinar will be recorded and made available afterwards. \nWho is this for? Researchers\, data stewards\, and infrastructure managers who work across (or want to work across) disciplinary boundaries. Whether you’re in Social Sciences\, Mathematics\, Earth Systems\, or Molecular Dynamics\, if you’ve ever wished you could find data beyond your own community’s catalogue\, this webinar is for you. No prior knowledge of data mesh concepts needed.

SUMMARY:Teaching Reproducibility for Professional Development and Intellectual Growth
DESCRIPTION:ZBW would like to cordially invite you to another Open Science Education Coffee Lecture. This time\, the focus will be on how reproducibility can be taught in economics and what significance it holds for research\, professional qualifications and career development. \nTeaching Reproducibility for Professional Development and Intellectual Growth \nReproducibility has long been more than just a methodological detail. It plays an increasingly important role in the quality of academic work and in how research is taught and learned today. But how can this topic be effectively conveyed in teaching? \nIn this Open Science Education Coffee Lecture\, Richard Ball\, Professor of Economics at Haverford College (USA)\, will provide insights into the work of Project TIER\, which he has helped shape for many years. As a member of the Executive Committee\, he is one of the individuals who help shape the project’s content and strategy. His talk is therefore not only an introduction to the approaches of Project TIER\, but also an opportunity to explore the development of reproducible research from a perspective that closely integrates teaching and research. \nRichard Ball will demonstrate how transparency and reproducibility have been systematically integrated into the teaching of quantitative methods in the economic and social sciences since 2013. This involves specific teaching approaches\, methodological and professional skills\, and the question of how the standards of scientific research have changed in recent years – for example\, through data and code policies and the establishment of replication archives.

SUMMARY:FAIR Digital Objects Conference
DESCRIPTION:FAIR Digital Objects (FDO) are autonomous information units that virtually bind all information in a machine-actionable way that is required to make data FAIR\, including various kinds of metadata and globally unique and resolvable persistent identifiers (PIDs). \nFDOs provide a conceptual and implementation framework to develop scalable cross-disciplinary capabilities\, deal with increasing data volumes and their inherent complexity\, build tools that help increase trust in data\, create mechanisms to efficiently operate in the domain of scientific assertions\, and promote data interoperability. In addition\, FDOs play a foundational role in implementing widely accepted trust frameworks\, which are characterised by the STAP principles (Sovereignty\, Transparency\, Accountability\, Persistence). These principles underpin large-scale data exploration supported by AI. \nAbout the Conference\nFor the third time at this scale\, the FDO2026 Conference will bring together leading experts from science and industry\, technologists\, data stewards/managers\, and policymakers engaged in advancing FAIR Digital Objects (FDOs). The conference will feature a mix of invited presentations\, panels\, posters and demonstrators. It will be associated with a day of tutorials and a newcomer session. \nThe first conference focused on discussing and finalising basic specifications\, while the second conference concentrated on practical implementations of the FDO concept (testbeds\, demonstrators). This third conference will explore the relevance of the FDOs for turning to a global data landscape characterised by the STAP Principles\, tackle the integration of FDOs with data use control technologies (dataspace technologies) and examine the challenges and showcase successful demonstrations of interoperability between different implementations. \nThe conference will take place at the facilities of the Technische Universität Wien. Video interaction options and video recordings of all sessions and the training sessions will be provided. \nRegistration time line will be published soon

SUMMARY:RDA 26th Plenary Meeting (VP26)
DESCRIPTION:The RDA has been working since 2013 to create solutions to allow researchers to openly share and re-use data across technologies\, disciplines\, and countries. The RDA 26th Plenary Meeting will take place fully virtually under the theme ‘Data Continuity for Research Resilience’\, from 16-20 March 2026. \n\n\nData continuity is essential for research resilience. As the research and scientific landscape faces institutional changes\, technological transitions\, and global disruptions\, VP26 brings together the RDA community to address critical challenges in maintaining access to research data. Through collaborative sessions\, RDA groups and individual members will explore strategies for building robust data infrastructures\, preserving research outputs\, and ensuring data remains accessible regardless of the challenges. \n\n\nJoin as the global RDA community comes together to explore data continuity strategies that strengthen research resilience in times of change\, crisis\, and transformation.
