The Science Europe members of the Working Group on Open Science regularly meet to discuss the transition to Open Science and exchange good practices. These discussions are informed by Open Science developments in practice and at policy level. The Working Group provides advice to the Governing Board and together with the Office develops relevant activities and events.
The transition to Open Science includes Open Access to research publications, data, and other types of output as well as opening up the entire research process. While Open Access remains high on the agenda, it is part of a more comprehensive effort that also considers other aspects such as research assessment systems, research infrastructures, policy and legislation, and investment and finance.
The members of Science Europe's Working Group on Open Science are at the forefront of this transition.

This publication by Science Europe’s Scientific Committee for the Social Sciences addresses two audiences: scientists, especially those who have been traditionally more resistant to the OA approach, and policy makers. In it, the Scientific Committee for Social Sciences proposes a ‘Diamond Engagement’ concept with the three key principles: partnership; standardisation and interoperability; and enabling structures.
