The Dutch Open Science Retreat is already in full swing. The morning started with a beautiful sunrise, and now the groups are in full work mode. Walks and shorter sessions to come in the afternoon and some fun evening activities (will there be singing again?)
Just got my UK ETA approved. ๐
What a bureaucratic nightmare. What an unnecessary rip-off. ๐
Weโre planning a hands-on workshop at the Open Science Retreat 2026 and we would love your input!
What should it be about?
The retreat is all about co-creating ideas that make research more transparent, inclusive, and impactful.
So tell us what topic would help you (and your community) take the next step in Open Science?

Would you give yourself one week to transform how you think about research? ๐ฟ
At the Open Science Retreat, thatโs exactly what happens โ part unconference, part hackathon, part creative reboot for open, fair & fun science.
Meet researchers, librarians & open advocates from around the world โ collaborate, reflect, hike, connect. ๐
