By leveraging ULisboa and Wroclaw Tech as testbeds for universities in Poland, Portugal, and other Widening countries, the Unite! open science community will co-create a white paper to support university managers, policymakers, and funders in these countries in developing European Open Science and Innovation Universities. This white paper will contribute to enabling a European Open Science and Innovation Area among Widening and Non-Widening countries.
The pressing societal challenges, coupled with climate change, and the goal of achieving the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), call for fostering new levels of integration, adopting innovative scientific practices, and enhancing global collaboration. Sustainable solutions can only be achieved through the joint efforts of research communities of researchers, students, staff, faculty, citizens, companies, municipalities, citizens and international organisations such as the European Commission, the United Nations, or the World Bank.
The adoption of open science practices, principles and goals can improve the quality both the internal – academic – and external – societal – processes of learning and creation of new knowledge, fostering trust in science, nurturing innovative and entrepreneurial people, and accelerating research and innovation processes for the achievement of the United Nations SDG 2030.
