CoNOSC in few words
On 21 October 2019, in Helsinki, France, the Netherlands and Finland invited representatives of the ERAC countries to discuss the creation of a network of open science coordination. The program of the day is included. Twenty-one countries were present, as well as the European Union. Participants agreed that it was necessary to create such a network to enable the coordination of national efforts in the field of open science.
The objectives and organizational principles of this network, which we have named ‘Council for National Open Science Coordination’ (CoNOSC), are specified in the attached Memorandum of Understanding. Here is the summary:
– CoNOSC helps to fill in the gaps in national open science coordination.
– CoNOSC will provide a valuable insights through the dialogue with other international partners.
– CoNOSC membership is in principle open to all countries within the European Research Area.
