Eallju – Developing the High North: UiT’s strategy towards 2030 explicitly states that practicing Open Science is a means to achieve our ambition of contributing to the development of innovative, democratic and sustainable solutions for major societal challenges. Open Science implies promoting openness and transparency in ways that comply with current legal and ethical guidelines, both in research, education, and innovation.

Research and publication practices that were common earlier, are not necessarily beneficial for building careers today and tomorrow. Both EU and the Research Council of Norway have demanded Open Science for years. Furthermore, UiT and other institutions are currently implementing the COARA Agreement on Reforming Research Assessment and the NOR-CAM Guiding Principles for the Assessment and Evaluation of Research(ers) in Light of the Transition to Open Science. Both texts emphasise new ways of evaluating the quality and impact of research.

As part of UiT’s research supervision development programme, the University Library offers a workshop on Open science in research supervision. The workshop has a duration of 1,5 hours and be aware that it is offered twice:

• In-person: Wednesday February 14^th, 09.00–10.30 
• Digital: Wednesday February 21^st, 9.00–10.30

Afterwards the lectur Per and Helene will be available for questions.
