Open Research Europe: Presentation of the open access platform of the European Commission (In Greek)
OpenAIRE representatives in Greece and Cyprus are pleased to welcome Dr Victoria Tsoukala, Policy Officer-Seconded National Expert- Open Access-Science Cloud - European Commission, DG RESEARCH, on Thursday 29th June 2023 at 11:00 am EEST.
The focus of the webinar is the Open Research Europe platform for peer-reviewed open access publications. The platform allows publishing of original research articles resulting from Horizon Europe and Horizon 2020 funding, without charging any fees to the authors, e.g. article processing charges. The platform is supported by the European Commission to help the researchers in meeting their requirements for immediate open access to publications.
The webinar will present in detail the publication model of the platform and the submission and evaluation process, according to which open assessment follows the publication of articles (post-publication open peer-review). It will also present the EC's policies under which the platform was created in 2021 and the future plans to transform it to a publication platform that will be funded by the countries.
Progressing Open Science in Greece and Cyprus: local initiatives and next steps (In Greek)
OpenAIRE representatives in Greece and Cyprus continue to organise webinars on Open Science and the European Open Science Cloud - EOSC.
Athena Research Center and the Library of the University of Cyprus invite you to participate in the webinar that takes place on Thursday 4th May 2023 at 11:00 am EEST. The purpose of the webinar is to inform about the ways in which Open Science has been applied in the Greek and Cypriot research ecosystems, emphasizing on the latest developments and upcoming actions. In these efforts, the contribution of National Initiatives has been significant, namely the Hellenic Open Science Initiative (HOSI) and Informal Consultative Group for Open Science in Cyprus.
OpenAIRE EXPLORE: Discovering research with focus on Sustainable Development Goals and Fields of Science classifications
Session held during the International Open Access Week 2022. View the OpenAIRE programme.
OpenAIRE EXPLORE is a discovery portal of Open Science scholarly works that is built on top of the OpenAIRE Research Graph. OpenAIRE embraces the need of open scholarly works mapping with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) classification and the Fields of Science taxonomy. These classifications assist to view contributions of research towards complex challenges for humanity such as climate change, biodiversity loss, pollution and poverty reduction.
In this workshop you will find out how SciNoBo - the Science No Borders team from our partner, Athena Research Center and its Artificial Intelligence stack - applies advanced Natural Language Processing and Graph Machine Learning technologies to provide FoS and SDG annotations to enhance the research products of the OpenAIRE Research Graph and how this new knowledge discovery pathway is now available through OpenAIRE EXPLORE.
Open Research Europe: The EC’s platform for open access publications
The National Open Access Desks for Greece and Cyprus continue their joint efforts to inform and update the research and academic communities in their countries about important Open Science aspects. This time they partner with the Scholarly Communication Unit of HEAL-Link.
The webinar presents the Open Research Europe platform which has been developed by the European Commission (EC) to support open access publishing for scientific publications of framework programme’s projects. The webinar aims to communicate the model and the ways in which the platform can be used by researchers.
When: Thursday 8 April 2021
Time: 11.00 a.m - 12.00 p.m
Language: Greek
Target audience: Researchers, Academic Staff, Librarians
We are pleased to announce that the webinar will be delivered by Victoria Tsoukala, Policy Officer-Seconded National Expert- Open Access-Science Cloud - European Commission, DG RESEARCH.
Victoria’s presentation is about the new platform for open access peer-reviewed publications that is promoted by the EC as a service for project coordinators of ‘Horizon 2020’ and ‘Europe Horizon’ programmes. In addition, the new Open Science policy framework of ‘Europe Horizon’ that the platform supports compliance with, will be analysed.

Webinar to Support Open Science Policy Creation and Legal Issues
Are you developing an open science policy in your organization? Do you need extra support to align it to other policies, or information on legal issues on research data such as licensing and copyright issues?
OpenAIRE is offering a series of webinars targeting Research Performing Organisations (RPOs) that explore policy and legal issues around Open Science/ Open Access. The aim of the webinars is to support RPOs and RFOs in developing and/or aligning their Open Science policies by discussing the elements that a policy should include and legal issues that should be taken into consideration, and presenting the ways in which OpenAIRE can support them in their work through the NOAD network.
The first one-hour webinar will take place on May 20th, 2019 at 13h CEST and targets stakeholders (from research organisations, funders and ministries) interested in open science policies. The webinar will present the policy templates developed by the OpenAIRE project, followed by examples of practical implementation. The webinar will also focus on how to approach licensing issues in the context of open science policies supported by best practice examples.
This webinar is aimed at: research institutions, research support staff, librarians, policy makers, ministries and funders
