OpenScienSE

According to the UNESCO recommendation, "Open Science is the movement to make scientific research and data accessible to all. It includes practices such as publishing open scientific research, campaigning for open access and generally making it easier to publish and communicate scientific knowledge. Additionally, it includes other ways to make science more transparent and accessible during the research process. This includes open notebook science, citizen science, and aspects of open source software and crowdfunded research projects".

Open Science principles are driven by the Budapest Open Access Initiative, Panton Principles to promote Open Science, the Amsterdam Call for Action on Open Science, and the Council of the European Union transition for Open Science System.

Motivated by the internationally Open Science movement and the characteristics of the Software Engineering area, OpenScienSE is created as a way to provide researchers and practitioners a means for exchanging experiences on how Open Science is applied to improve Software Engineering practices.
