If public research is funded as a public good, why is the intelligence used to evaluate it still locked behind closed systems?
This article explores the reliance on opaque, proprietary infrastructures and presents the @OpenAIREGraph as an open, community-governed alternative for transparent and auditable research intelligence.

How can we use Open Science indicators responsibly to support better decisions?
As indicators become central to tracking progress, they also shape incentives, behaviour, and funding priorities across the research system.
This webinar explores how to use them to support evidence-based policy, meaningful monitoring, and responsible research assessment.

What does Open Science look like in practice for researchers?
One year after its launch, the #EOSCEUNode is becoming a key gateway to access, share, and work with research data and services across Europe.
Recent updates include:
🔹 a more intuitive user space and dashboard
🔹 increased credits for more ambitious work
🔹 dedicated access for EU-funded projects
🔹 practical tools for data-driven workflows
Who should control research intelligence?
This question was discussed in the 3rd Nordic Bibliometric Infrastructure Meeting.
If research intelligence is influencing funding, policy, and assessment, the infrastructure behind it needs to be transparent, trustworthy, and community-governed.

Open Access is transforming how research is shared across Europe.
📊 84% of EU countries now have a national Open Access policy, with €235.24M invested in 2023.
Through EOSC Track, we monitor policies, investments, and progress to support a more open and accessible research ecosystem.

A quick look at weekly OpenAIRE highlights
1️⃣ We launched a new webinar series on EOSC EU Node services in action, together with GÉANT SIG-RED.
2️⃣ At the MCAA Annual Conference, our CEO spoke about human-centred Open Science and how openness can become more inclusive and responsive to society.
What if researcher profiles showed more than papers and metrics?
In this article for ERCIM News, Stefania Amodeo and Zenia Xenou explore how OpenAIRE is combining open data and narrative CVs to support more responsible research assessment.
A useful read on researcher recognition, open research information, and what richer profiles could look like in practice.

Sciety Discussions is a researcher-led space for open, meaningful conversations about early-stage research. Built with Bonfire; open-source and federated technology, it puts you in control: of who you engage with, how you moderate, and what matters to your community.
Sciety surfaces the discussions as part of the preprint history, ensuring your contributions to preprint dialogue are discoverable and part of a growing ecosystem that values openness, transparency, and researcher voice.
