[BBC] Researcher meeting on the Dutch "National Plan Open Science"

[Egon Willighagen]

(as indicated below, the meeting is aimed at *Dutch* researchers, but
I believe it is relevant for the other BBC countries to be aware of
the meeting.)

During the its EU presidency last year, the Dutch government pushed to
further Open Science as a European level. This has led to various
activities, and at a local level in a "National Plan Open Science"
(https://www.openscience.nl/) to enact the European "Amsterdam Call
for Action on Open Science" (see [0]).

On May 29, this National Plan will be discussed directly with
researchers for the first time at a national meeting aimed at Dutch
scientists. Besides some top down information with speakers like
Sander Dekker (government) and Wim van den Doel (NWO), the meeting
will be by researchers and for researchers:

For example, during the lunch break researchers can present their own
Open Science work or shop around and see how others are using Open
Science in their research. This is organized as a Knowledge Commons
session. After this 1.5h Open Science galore, there will be break out
sessions where you can learn about various themes and discuss the
issues you are facing. Mind you, this is the time to let the Dutch
government hear your researcher voice and needs!

Importantly, the meeting is for anyone doing research, whether at a
university, a HBO, an institute, but even at home as a citizen
scientist. After all, it's about Open Science and our European future.
Also, it's not only about natural sciences, but also linguistics,
humanities, social sciences, law, etc.

With kind regards,

Egon
