[MGI27-02] International trends, viewed from discussions at G7 Open Science Working Group, governmental policy makers of Japan as well as the research community
Keywords:Open Science, FAIR data principles, research asessment, resaerch ecosystem
In the science policy area, the Intergovernmental framework and its consensus is influential to stakeholders related to the scientific research ecosystem, including research institutions, research communities, academic journal publishers, funding agencies, research libraries and repositories and so on. The author has been working together with governmental divisions of Japan for G7 science ministers’ meeting and it's working group of open science (G7 Open Science WG, or G7OSWG).
This paper will overview the G7OSWG activity and its brief history, together with the actions and discussion in bodies of the research community. G7OSWG has been focusing on mainly two points; incentives and rewards of openness of the research ecosystem together with evaluation of research careers involving researchers’ recognition and rewards of Open Science activities, and the infrastructures for an optimal use of research data. In them, discussion points including the research assessment, researchers recognition, and open science infrastructures should be in line with the Open Science and FAIR principles. Also argument and actions in research communities like scientific societies and national/international academies/science councils are really indispensable to consider possibility of the future change of the research system or “research ecosystem”.
Data and open science experts selected by G7 member countries joined the delegations and G7OSWG, so the WG functions very uniquely to work together between the experts of the scientific sectors and policy makers. Hopefully the future direction of the “top-down” and “bottom-up” science stakeholders’ works will be discussed.
