ProgrammesThe OSCARS project (Open Science Clusters’ Action for Research and Society) organises an online launch event of the OSCARS Second open call for Open Science Projects. This launch event will provide information on the second OSCARS open call for Open Science and gives the opportunity to ask any question related to the call. The launch event is open to researchers from all scientific disciplines, data scientists and members of research infrastructures. The agenda and registration form for the launch event.
During the OSCARS project two open calls will be launched
To support the research communities to take up open science and foster the involvement of scientists in the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC), OSCARS will launch two open calls (in total worth about 16 million Euro) to select third-parties for the development of new, innovative Open Science projects or services, that together will drive the uptake of FAIR-data-intensive research throughout the European Research Area (ERA). Projects can be proposed in the field of any of the Science Clusters by any researcher, or group of researchers, through a cascading grant mechanism. The first open call closed on 15 May 2024 (overview of funded projects), the second call will open on 15 November 2024 and close on 15 January 2025.
What is the OSCARS project about?
OSCARS brings together world-class European Research Infrastructures (RIs) in the ESFRI roadmap and beyond to foster the uptake of Open Science in Europe. Such RIs are part of the five Science Clusters (Humanities and Social Sciences (SSHOC), Life Sciences (LIFE SCIENCE RI), Environmental Sciences (ENVRI), Photon and Neutron Science (PANOSC), Astronomy, Nuclear and Particle Physics (ESCAPE)), which have strived to make open data easily accessible to the users and the public, by providing FAIR data management policies and practices for enabling Open Science. Today, the Science Clusters are an integral part of the EOSC initiative and, through OSCARS, will further contribute to its development and implementation process.

Only for stakeholders located in Flanders
The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’. RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
