How everything comes together: Perspectives on Open/ Responsible/ Citizen Science in the era of CoARA

Activity: Talks and presentationsConference presentations

Description

It is often said that Open Science is just science done right.  In the context of Third Missions, that means that science and research are not only available and accessible, but also useful to society: Hence, it is both trustworthy and relevant. In turn, it follows that universities much engage with many representatives of society to establish such trust and relevancy. And, that when assessing its successes in doing so, obviously they must address not only whether all relevant partners in society have access to relevant research, but whether said research has indeed been assimilated. Logically, universities, research institutions and funders must recruit, and reward based on meeting new criteria. And this is where Open Science, Reponsible Conduct and Citizen Science can meet up and greet the Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment (CoARA).  In this talk, I will deliver my input on the road ahead to being able to assess the diversity and output of scholarly communication in the future – as well as the status as to these issues at University of Southern Denmark (SDU). In doing so, I will explore measures of impact and reach of scholarly work. The aim is to highlight the challenges and opportunities presented by evolving paradigms, hopefully shedding light on the next steps.
