Featured Panel: Open Science in Developing Countries:

Activity: Talk or presentationInvited talkAcademic

Description

Abstract: Open science is gaining momentum as the prevailing paradigm within developed nations and enjoys support from UNESCO. However, open science in the developing world has gained less attention. Recently, researchers from developing countries have started to make their voices heard, calling for a re-design of open science to suit developing countries (Onie, 2022, Nature), support for grassroots open science networks (Jin et al., in press, AMPPS), and to avoid potential harm (Ross-Hellauer, 2022, Nature). In this panel discussion, Six speakers, all collaborators on the collaborative initiative “Practical Guidance for Promoting Open Science in Developing Countries,” will cover multiple aspects of promoting open science in developing countries. Hu Chuan-Peng will give an overview of barriers, opportunities, and pitfalls encountered by researchers in developing countries. Alma Jeftic will share their experience of implementing open and transparent practices. Leonardo Seda and Samiul Hossian will share their experiences conducting replication studies. Nikita Ghodke will bring together how education, training, and communication-building help the growth of open science in developing countries. Concluding the panel, Zhiqi Xu will be focusing on efforts with hard-to-reach populations, those often overlooked in traditional behavioral science studies.
