CLARIN has recently signed an agreement with CoARA, the Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment, establishing a common direction for research assessment reform, while respecting organisations’ autonomy.
CoARA’s Agreement on Reforming Research Assessment is one of the most concrete steps towards Open Science, as it sets a shared course for changes in assessment practices for researchers and research-performing organisations.
CLARIN supports CoARA’s overarching goal of recognising diverse outputs, practices and activities that maximise the quality and impact of research and agrees to its principles, commitments and timeframe for reforms. To date, more than 500 organisations have signed the agreement and CLARIN is proud to be one of them.
