Barcelona Declaration Working Group Sustaining Infrastructures - Sessions on Open Research Infrastructures and Related Initiatives - Report

The Working Group Sustaining Infrastructures of the Barcelona Declaration examines how open infrastructures for research information can be sustainably supported across the research ecosystem. As part of this work, the Working Group is exploring different governance approaches, sustainability models, and forms of community engagement that underpin existing infrastructures. In September and October 2025, the Working Group organized two knowledge-sharing sessions with open infrastructures (Session 1) and initiatives operating at the ecosystem level (Session 2) to discuss sustainability models and how these can be strengthened through community engagement, coordination, transparency, and strategic investment.The sessions aimed at knowledge sharing and identifying where the Barcelona Declaration community (and the Working Group in particular), can most effectively contribute in supporting signatories as they transition toward open research information.Additional materialsSession on Open Infrastructures🖥️ Presentations: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.18187006🎬 Recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nf_5px0PjzsSession on Related Initiatives🖥️ Presentations: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.18188254🎬 Recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nf_5px0Pjzs

Something that surfaced repeatedly in our MoCHI workshops but wasn't in our original 11 themes: resilience.

Not just survival — but adaptability. Financial, technical, political, organizational.

Past longevity ≠ future resilience. That distinction matters more than ever right now.

Building trust through values: What we learned from the MoCHI project

How do we evaluate open infrastructure? After a year of research, we discovered the answer isn't about checklists. It's about navigating values in tension and building trust.

Invest in Open Infrastructure

We wrapped up the MoCHI project — a year-long study of how community health frameworks and metrics shape decisions about open research infrastructure.
Key finding: frameworks like CHAOSS, FOREST, and POSI are useful — but mainly for internal self-assessment, not external evaluation.

What stakeholders actually use? 11 recurring themes, shaped by trust and tension.

We’re recruiting! Four new Grade 8 posts in Advanced Research Computing | Kenny Gillen

Help secure a national GPU supercomputing platform powering cutting-edge science! I’m hiring a Senior Research Infrastructure Engineer (Cybersecurity) to help secure the systems behind Baskerville, the UK’s new £18M National (High Performance) Compute Resource, being built at the University of Birmingham. Baskerville is a large-scale GPU supercomputing platform supporting researchers across the UK working on challenges such as: • Clean energy and energy storage • Environmental sustainability • Advanced materials and critical minerals • AI and data-intensive science • Medicine and medical technologies The interesting part of this role is solving the security challenges that come with large research computing platforms: • Securing multi-tenant Linux and GPU clusters running arbitrary research workloads • Protecting sensitive data while enabling open scientific collaboration • Applying pragmatic security controls in HPC environments designed for performance and scale You’ll help shape the security architecture of a national research computing platform, working closely with HPC engineers and researchers to design controls that work in real scientific environments. If you enjoy working at the intersection of cyber security, Linux systems engineering and high-performance computing, I’d love to hear from you. Happy to answer questions about the role or about Baskerville. Please share with anyone in HPC, research computing, Linux infrastructure, or security engineering who might be interested. 🔗 Find out more about this role and 3 others in Advanced Research Computing: https://lnkd.in/eEafPFve Apply here:👉https://lnkd.in/e8R_fzBW #Jobs #BaskervilleNCR #HPC #ResearchComputing #CyberSecurity #CareerOpportunities #CyberSecurityJobs #CyberJobs #LinuxJobs #RSE #Supercomputing

Yesterday at the #SciLake closing event, we explored how the #SciLake project is helping turn fragmented scientific knowledge into more connected, discoverable insights through Scientific Knowledge Graphs.

We’ll be sharing highlights from the discussion soon.

🧩 How can DH communities maintain sustainable directories of research tools?
In “Open Tool Registries! Resolving the Directory Paradox with Wikidata” (DHQ, 2026), the authors present a framework for open, community-curated tool registries built on Wikidata, SPARQL, and open infrastructures like GitLab & Zenodo.

Advancing Open Science Through Open Source Development

Scholarship advances best when knowledge, tools, and data are shared as public goods. Just as societies invest in roads, power grids, and internet infrastructure for the benefit of all, research communities need durable, open infrastructure to support discovery. Open source provides that foundation by ensuring that research systems are transparent, adaptable, and built for the long term.
