Project overview
The UK Reproducibility Network (UKRN; www.ukrn.org) promotes rigorous and transparent research through collaboration among researchers, institutions, funders, publishers, and others. Its flagship Open Research Programme (ORP), running from 2021 to 2027, aims to accelerate the adoption of high-quality open research practices by:
- Building institutional capacity via a train-the-trainer project
- Supporting reform of reward and recognition systems
- Sharing and learning from policies and practices
- Providing evaluation tools for planning
- Developing a sustainable, long-term model
Our specific objectives are:
1: Developing and delivering innovative, multi-institutional, high-quality training in open and transparent research practice;
2: Developing and delivering a framework for ongoing evaluation of institutional practice and learning in open research, leading to the embedding of a culture of continuous research improvement;
3: Sharing effective practice among partner institutions and across the sector, and promoting the alignment of incentives, embedded in institutional practice, to drive uptake of open research.
