Our members define our priorities. We ask them to point out issues of national concern.
Collaboration with CoNOSC can help address some of these larger issues together. Priority areas serve as our compass for our knowledge-exchange activities and themes for international OS policy dialogue.
The following areas were identified as the top five priorities where members would like to collaborate in 2024:
- Incentives and reforming research assessment and linking with CoARA and national chapters
- National funding for data management, data stewardship, maintenance and preservation of research outputs
- Curricula for data stewardship for support staff and researchers
- Networks for data stewards, research software engineers
- Open Science and FAIR training for researchers at all levels
- OA cost monitoring at a national level (APCs, subscription/TAs)
We will review these priorities in late 2024 before we plan our activities around some of them.
