This NASA-funded workshop, hosted by FIU, will focus on a collective action strategy for embedding open science & scholarship within higher education incentive structures. It is designed to map out attainable steps that presidents and provosts can take to advance open science & scholarship at their home institutions, while simultaneously demonstrating to the broader higher education community that meaningful change is achievable. The workshop will include remarks from federal agency participants and leaders of professional societies and philanthropies.
