On Friday, 12 September 2025, a public hearing titled Making Sense of Open Science will take place in Prague. The full-day event will focus on Open Science—one of the key pillars of current European science policy and beyond. The hearing will explore pressing topics such as data management, publishing regimes, and public engagement in science. The program will feature panel discussions, interactive workshops, and the presentation of findings from a recent sociological study. In addition to mapping the current state and future directions of Open Science, discussions will examine its relationship to scientific trustworthiness, institutional resilience, and the use of emerging digital technologies. Special attention will be paid to how Open Science principles intersect with scientific integrity and ethics. 

The event is intended for academics, policymakers, representatives of major Czech scientific institutions, and interested members of the public.
