Open Science Monitoring Initiatives Dataset v01

This dataset contains a community-curated inventory of Open Science monitoring initiatives compiled by Working Group 2 (WG2) of the Open Science Monitoring Initiative (OSMI). The dataset aims to provide a structured overview of initiatives that monitor and evaluate the implementation, uptake, and impact of Open Science across different geographical regions, disciplines, and organisational contexts. The Open Science monitoring initiative, following the OSMI definition, is defined as an initiative that: Publicly and regularly monitors and evaluates trends or impacts related to open science policies, mechanisms, interventions, and/or incentives; May use quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-methods approaches; Monitors the degree of openness of scientific processes and outputs such as publications, software, or research data, and ideally also covers other pillars of Open Science (e.g. citizen science, economic or societal impact), across multiple stages of the research cycle. The first version of this dataset was created collaboratively by members of OSMI Working Group 2, who identified, consolidated, and described Open Science monitoring initiatives based on their expertise and knowledge of the global landscape. Following this initial compilation, the dataset was opened for public consultation, inviting the wider Open Science community to review the inventory, suggest additional initiatives, and propose corrections or improvements. We are grateful to everyone who contributed their time and expertise during this consultation, helping to make the dataset more comprehensive and representative. The dataset is intended to be a living resource and will continue to evolve as the Open Science monitoring landscape develops. Future versions will incorporate newly identified initiatives, metadata updates, and community feedback. We welcome suggestions for additional monitoring initiatives or improvements to existing records. If you would like to contribute, please contact the OSMI Working Group 2 co-chairs. Contact information is available on the OSMI website. For more information about the methodology and the activities of Working Group 2, see: WG2.
