Positionality statements can help researchers to reflect on their own research process and can be a first step towards opening and sharing this process.
We will use writing prompts to guide attendees towards a first draft of their positionality statement. Attendees will be working with a workbook and are invited to write with pen on paper for this session.

Wichtige Ansätze in den Niederlanden #NL: #OpenScience Communities zur lokalen Vernetzung und gegenseitige Unterstützung von Forschenden. Mittlerweile haben fast alle Städte Communities #OSCNL und #OpenScienceNL, ein nationales Programm das bis #2030 läuft, dann soll offene Wissenschaft #Standard sein. Aufgrund der aktuellen #Wissenschaftspolitik soll #OpenScienceNL ab 2025 das Budget halbiert werden. 👎 #DINI25
Check out the four 🆕 #OpenScienceNL advisory panels in which CWTS colleagues @vtraag, @MobileMaggie, @parrhesiastic and @Thed van Leeuwen are involved as experts 👇https://www.openscience.nl/en/advisory-panels

Wow! Looks like we will have a fantastic steering board at the #OpenScienceNL team! https://nwo.nl/en/news/steering-board-open-science-nl-appointed Very much looking forward to working with @antica_c @sebosch and other members else who don't *yet* have a mastodon account (or whom I can't find on Mastodon 😉 ).

Super chuffed that our Final Report on #CitizenScience for Policy and Practice is now published! https://op.europa.eu/en/publication-detail/-/publication/63baa6bb-d359-11ed-a05c-01aa75ed71a1/language-en/format-PDF/source-283611345 Lots of great recommendations for the #OpenScienceNL team :) @HLdeJonge @mariacruz
Mutual learning exercise : citizen science initiatives : policy and practice : final report.

Over the past decade, great advances have been made in applying innovative participatory and inclusive research practices across a wide range of domains. These have involved increasing numbers of citizens in monitoring, observing, and co-researching societal issues such as climate change impacts on the environment and public health, sustainable mobility, and plastic pollution in rivers and oceans. Important outcomes have been achieved, from fundamental scientific discoveries1 to data that support evidence-informed policy.

Jammer van dit voorbehoud. In vergelijking met universiteiten kom ik bij het hbo-onderzoek vaker publicaties tegen die in de wat onbekendere tijdschriften staan, maar juist wel achter een betaalmuur.
