The UNESCO Open Science Recommendation was adopted by the UN member states in 2021.

Open Infra is an important part: science should use publicly/community-owned infrastructure and avoid proprietary software and platforms.

This means Open Science requires some switches, eg:

👉 Qualtrics 🔁 LimeSurvey/formr

👉 NVivo/Atlas/MaxQDA 🔁 QualCoder/ROCK

👉 Mendeley/Endnote 🔁 Zotero

👉 SPSS/SAS/STATA 🔁 jamovi/JASP/R

Who would you say share the responsibility for making these changes?

@matherion I think all three of the options have a shared responsibility!

@RonaldVisser True, I agree. But depending on your perspective you could argue, e.g., that universities have more power than individual researchers, and so, more responsibility. Or that funders are uniquely positioned by attaching open source requirements to funding, making them more responsible, etc 🙂

@matherion I agree, that's why I chose for the universities, but it is only possible if we all do this!
