Open Science Week 2025
Scientific publishing is often slow, non-transparent, and very costly. If we want to get more out of publishing by creating a more accessible, equitable, and sustainable publishing landscape, we need to start with ourselves and change our publication behavior. How can we best do this? What can we in the social sciences do to make this happen? How do we set academia in motion?
Join us for a discussion on the challenges and opportunities of our publishing practices, in order to come to a fitting and resilient publishing strategy for our faculty.
Register here so we can provide you with a tasty lunch!
