OpenAIRE is actively contributing to the Open Science Monitoring Initiative (OSMI), supporting the mapping of existing monitoring initiatives to improve transparency and comparability.

Great to see our own Tereza Szybisty (Šímová) co-chairing the working group on understanding the Open Science monitoring landscape, together with Lamis Yahia Mohamed Elkheir.
