Open Data in science: recommendations for Europe

To promote Open Data in science, the European Members of the International Council for Science (ICSU) adopted a statement with recommendations for Europe. These concern the FAIR Data Principles, data repositories, data skills, incentives and reward systems, Research Data Management and research culture.

"Open Data in Science in Europe" Statement by the European ICSU Members

The statement is based on a workshop that was held together with the All European Academies (ALLEA) in Brussels, and benefits from a consultation among the 80 meeting participants from across Europe who represented science academies, research performers, funding bodies, international science organisations and government agencies.

The global science organisation ICSU comprises a membership of 122 national scientific bodies and 30 International Scientific Unions. The European ICSU Members are currently chaired by the Swiss Academy of Sciences (SCNAT).
