Are We Measuring Open Science the Right Way?

A Conversation on the Promises and Pitfalls of Open Science Indicators

An EOSC Track Webinar Session | 90 Minutes | Date: May 29, 2026; 11:00-12:30 CEST

SCOPE OF THE SESSION

This webinar explores how Open Science indicators can be used responsibly to support evidence-based policy, monitoring, and research assessment reform. As indicators increasingly shape how progress in Open Science is measured and communicated, they also influence incentives across the research system.

The session brings together European initiatives working on Open Science monitoring, responsible metrics, and impact assessment to reflect on the opportunities, risks, and guiding principles for the use of indicators in policy and practice.

The discussion aims to recognise that indicators do more than describe reality - they can shape incentives, influence behaviour, and affect policy and funding decisions. The session will create a space for dialogue between monitoring initiatives, research assessment reform efforts, and policy actors working to ensure the responsible use of indicators in the European research landscape.
