PASTEUR4OA supports the aim of encouraging the development of matching policies on Open Access and Open Data in the European Union, according to the European Commission’s Recommendation on “Access to and preservation of scientific information” (July 2012) and in view of maximizing alignment with the Horizon 2020 policy on access to the research funded by the Commission.

Stimulating national level actions and policy alignment by:

Maintaining regular communication with national expert organisations – Key Nodes – to address national needs

Monitoring national developments based on information provided by Key Nodes and on assessment of national policies and informing the provision of targeted support

Promoting the implementation of programmes of activities tailored to address national needs that are supported by evidence-based advocacy materials

Facilitating European coordination among policymakers and identifying solutions to address common challenges by convening ten regional workshops and a European conference.
