FuturePub Berlin - Special Edition

#FuturePub is heading to Berlin for our fourth and final event of 2023 :) We're excited to be here during Berlin Science Week and ahead of the inspiring Fallings Walls Science Summit.We're hosting this special edition FuturePub to encourage conversations on the Future of Global Research; in many ways, the world now feels more divided than ever, despite the advances in technology that connect our daily lives together. We have a lovely venue – Hotel Palace Berlin – located in the vibrant heart of the city between the Ku’damm and Zoological Garden, just a few stations away from the Brandenburg Gate, and we hope you'll join us for a thought-provoking evening!Final speaker announcement now out. You can register to attend [here](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/futurepub-berlin-future-of-global-research-tickets-740190799607), and recordings of the lightning talks will be uploaded after the event.'Open Science is the science we need for the future we want'My title is a quote from Audrey Azoulay, UNESCO Director General. And Open Science cannot be truly open without equitable participation in knowledge creation and sharing. Current incentive systems, including researcher assessment systems, which are built on the event of publication of an article as the 'unit of value' of research contribute to perpetuating inequity and holding back transition to an Open Science ecosystem. We need to change the system and design publishing and business models that incentivize sharing the form of output most appropriate to the research and support the advancement of usable, trustworthy knowledge and global participation.Expanding the funded investigator pipeline through open scienceI will introduce my project [purpos.eco](https://profiles.eco/purpos), a public use repository promoting open science in environmental stewardship. I will explain that ORCID iD is now a requirement for NSF and NIH funding and how my project can familiarize underrepresented minorities in science with the ORCID system early in their education, reducing barriers to participating in funded and refereed science in the United States. I will walk through my proposed process for interacting with the [purpos.eco](https://profiles.eco/purpos) repository and some possible use cases.Revamping (revitalizing?) Science for the Future of EnergyI'll discuss ideas about how we can improve and extend research of all kinds to advance the social and global aspects of the energy transition and climate change.Making Open Science resources accessible to allTo attempt to counter the misconception that Open Science only fits a few, I decided to start mapping the resources.  And, indeed, there seem to be at least 2 or three that researchers of any given topic in any region of the world can identify and adopt for their data and workflow processes. The [map](https://kumu.io/access2perspectives/open-science#disciplines/by-os-principle) now contains more than 600 resources and supplementary data nodes across the spectrum of available tools, guidelines, events, and services by research discipline, also including general resources that are sortable by Open Science principle, language or country. Institutional OA Journals: Publishing in ContextA recent study found between 17,000 to 29,000 diamond OA journals currently in existence publishing 8-9% of the total number of scholarly journal articles each year. Many of these journals are managed and published by academic institutions. These academic-run journals should be seen and assessed within the full range of outputs from their sponsoring institution. [ScienceOpen](https://www.scienceopen.com/) provides a framework to put institutional OA journals in context to raise their profile and reputation.
