\nIn November 2021, at the 41th session of the General Conference of UNESCO, 193 Member States unanimously adopted the first global standard-setting instrument on open science, the UNESCO Recommendation on Open Science<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Developed through a regionally balanced multistakeholder, inclusive and transparent consultation process, this landmark international agreement defines shared values and principles for open science, and identifies measures to make science more accessible, the scientific process more inclusive and the outputs of science more readily available and relevant for society.<\/p>\n

The Recommendation affirms the importance of open science as a vital tool to improve the quality and accessibility of both scientific outputs and scientific process, to bridge the science, technology and innovation gaps between and within countries and to fulfill the human right of access to science. <\/p>\n

The Implementation Strategy was shared with UNESCO Member States and the Open Science Partnership during an Online information meeting on Implementation of the UNESCO Recommendation on Open Science on 28 April 2022, which recording is available below.<\/p>\n
