FOSTER. Políticas y formación dirigidas hacia la ciencia abierta (Open Science)

The FOSTER (Facilitate Open Science Training for European Research) project, funded by the European Commission under the Seventh Framework Programme, with a duration of two years (February 2014-2016) Its general objectives include the dissemination of European open access policies, and support, especially for young researchers, so that open access to their scientific production is a common practice in the context of the European Research Area (ERA). To achieve these objectives, FOSTER has established three lines of action: 1. Identify and collect relevant content related to open science, which can be reused in the e-learning portal and in training activities. 2. Creation of an e-learning portal, with scalable learning modules. 3. Training courses sponsored by FOSTER with special attention to those whose function is that of train to trainers.
