🔔 The @CoARAssessment Working Group Open Infrastructures for Responsible Research Assessment #OI4RRA has published a new output: “Conceptual Architecture for the Implementation of a Responsible Research Assessment Framework Built on Open Infrastructures”, available on Zenodo https://zenodo.org/records/15297695
The document presents a tiered conceptual architecture to guide the implementation of responsible research assessment based on open, interoperable infrastructures, and provides both strategic and technical guidance to support fair, inclusive, and transparent evaluation practices aligned with CoARA principles.
💻 Two identical webinars will present the key elements of the work and provide an open space for discussion with the broader community, with contributions from Natalia Manola, and @vergoulis.

Conceptual Architecture for the Implementation of a Responsible Research Assessment Framework Built on Open Infrastructures
This output from the CoARA Working Group "Towards Open Infrastructures for Responsible Research Assessment (OI4RRA)" presents a conceptual architecture to guide the implementation of Responsible Research Assessment based on Open Infrastructures. It introduces a four-tier model, covering persistent identifiers and metadata standards, open publishing venues, metadata aggregation, and assessment support services, to enable fair, transparent, and contextualized research evaluation. The document provides strategic and technical guidance for research-performing and research-funding organizations seeking to operationalize CoARA principles through open, interconnected, and sustainable infrastructures. Accompanying policy briefs further support Research Perfomring Organisations and Research Funding Organisations by offering practical guidance for the transition and adoption of open infrastructure-based assessment systems.

Open Infrastructures for Responsible Research Assessment: Principles and Framework
The publication, produced in the context of the CoARA Working Group on Open Infrastructures for Responsible Research Assessment (OI4RRA), presents a comprehensive framework for leveraging Open Infrastructures for Responsible Research Assessment. It defines key principles, characterisics, technical requirements and governance practices that ensure Open Infrastructures are transparent, inclusive, and capable of supporting fair and responsible research assessment. The report outlines the necessity of transitioning from proprietary systems to community-driven infrastructures, emphasizing technical robustness, operational capacity, community-centred and ethical & inclusive practices. The framework is open for public consultation until 14.03.2025, please after you read the document, fill out the evaluation form available here: https://forms.gle/wiXjTUfNCYN9xKAG9
