EOSC Steering Board representatives
In late 2019 the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Latvia initiated the Open Science Latvia landscape research with one of the main aims to create a roadmap of the Open Science policy. Several actions and initiatives to implement principles of Open Access/Open Science policies are taking place in Latvia.
The Latvian National Open Science Strategy 2021-2027 states that Open Science development is formed around three pillars: Open Access, FAIR Data and Citizen Science. It is devoted to the development of EOSC related activities, competencies and infrastructure. Latvia participates in EOSC projects and development, such as through EOSC Nordic.
Higher Education and Science Joint Digital Services Center
The EOSC National Structure is estimated to be established in 2022. Its main three priorities are to:
- Develop and jointly procure high quality digital services for research institutions
- Coordinate national stakeholders to address current and future needs
- Coordinate EOSC activities at national level
