Diamond Open Access: How can we make it shine?
20 June 2022

In March 2022, the Action Plan for Diamond Open Access was launched, upon initiative of Science Europe, cOAlition S, OPERAS, and the French National Research Agency (ANR). The objective of the Action Plan is to further develop and expand a sustainable, community-driven Diamond OA scholarly communication ecosystem.

YERUN Alliance is among the numerous organisations supporting the Action Plan and is eager to actively contribute to its implementation. This is why we are organising an online event on 20th June (10:30 – 12:30 CEST) aiming to contribute to the ongoing discussions and complement the intentions laid out in the Action Plan with a more hands-on perspective: what are universities doing to promote this yet under-exploited publication format? What are the obstacles that are preventing it from reaching its full potential? What can the research sector do to overcome these obstacles?

Conference Future Governance Models of the European Universities – 5th May 2022 Brussels

One of the challenges for the 41 European University alliances is the definition of governance and management structures, not only during the pilot period but also in the long run. Although a variety of models have already been implemented inside the existing alliances, several issues remain to be clarified, especially outside the alliances and related with their legal statute in the European arena for education and research transformation.

In order to discuss these issues and further deepen the reflection around the European Universities initiative, the FilmEU Alliance is promoting a conference in Brussels on the 5th of May on the topic of “Future Governance models of the European Universities”.
