Through extensive preparations The Finnish Research Infrastructure Committee has published the “Strategy for National Research Infrastructures in Finland 2020–2030”. It is aimed particularly at promoting the development of national nodes for national and international research infrastructures. The community has jointly created a Declaration for Open Science and Research to boost common direction for the development of the research community.
