The overall objective of the Bi-Regional Conference on Open Access in an Open Science Environment is to contribute to reinforce the EU–LAC cooperation in research and innovation, to gain a better, mutual understanding of current policies and implementation of open science in the two regions and to identify opportunities for collaboration and further alignment. The specific objectives are:
✓ To enhance common open science approaches and to promote compatible visions between the main R&I actors in the two regions through a mutual learning approach.
✓ To identify common challenges and complementarity of approaches towards open science practices and to explore possible joint actions.
✓ To promote a better understanding in the EU of the non-commercial decentralized open access digital infrastructures developed in the LAC region through a direct contact with their main actors.
✓ To jointly discuss possible paths for a more coordinated approach for enabling open access to scientific results across LAC region and the EU
✓ To explore further collaboration initiatives for a coordinated implementation of the open science policies in the EU and LAC region.
