COAR Annual Conference 2026
Conference
As we enter a time of increasing global volatility, with political tensions rising and new technologies transforming the information commons, the open science community is faced with a set of novel and pressing challenges that will need to be addressed if we are to remain relevant. This meeting will convene COAR’s international membership in order to discuss important issues and proactively chart a course for our community to navigate the current environment. Just some of the questions we will consider are:
- How can we advance our vision of an open and interoperable scholarly communications system in an increasingly fractured geopolitical climate?
- How can we take advantage of the opportunities presented by Artificial Intelligence while maintaining trust, transparency, and accountability?
- How can we balance global discoverability with local sovereignty of diverse and multilingual research outputs?
