General Guidelines on Responsible Open Science

ROSiE guidelines is the Open Science (OS) complement to the ECoC. It is an aspirational document that aims to provide guidance on how to conduct Open Science (OS) responsibly in everyday research practice, following established ethical and integrity principles and values. The articles of these guidelines primarily apply to research but may also be suitable to processes leading to innovation.

  3. 3Pinpoint gaps and grey areas.
  4. 4Integrate ethics and research integrity in open science and citizen science as a structural component.

Key concepts

The movement to make scientific research (including publications, data, physical samples, and software) and its dissemination accessible to all levels of an inquiring society.

Scientific research conducted, in whole or in part, by non-professional scientists.

Scientific research and technological development processes that take into account effects and potential impacts on the environment and society Research Ethics: concerned with the moral issues that arise during or as a result of research activities, as well as the ethical conduct of researchers.

Refers to Reliability, Honesty, Respect and Accountability. The authors of the influential Singapore Statement on Research Integrity proposed fundamental principles relating to Honesty, Accountability, professional courtesy and fairness, and Good stewardship of research.

Τarget Groups

How do they benefit from Rosie?

A consultation and stakeholder engagement through workshops and discussions with the Stakeholder Forum; creating and facilitating a community of practice to gather knowledge on Research Ethics and Research Integrity in Open Science from other European projects.

ROSiE partners will reach out the research community and policy-makers, in order to co-create with them novel practices in the design, the preparation, the making, the valorization and the evaluation of science.
