2025-05-20 –, Plenary room
How can we make sure can we have an infrastructure ecosystem for science that is resilient to attacks on open data based on divergent political inclinations?
Recent political changes in the international landscape have affected science in various ways, especially stirring concerns in some fields such as climate and earth sciences and social sciences. Careers are in danger, but so is research data collected and generated painstakingly over many years. The developments have been so fast and furious that many have been caught by surprise.
A panel of researchers, a representative from the Dutch Research Council and a representative from SURF will discuss how we got here and how we can prevent these dangers in the future. We will talk about what measures have we been taking in the last few months to counter the threats. Join us for this sensitive and much needed conversation.
