Description
EOSC Future responds to INFRAEOSC-03-2020 call in order to integrate, consolidate, and connect e-infrastructures, research communities, and initiatives in Open Science to further develop the EOSC Portal, EOSC-Core and EOSCExchangeof the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC).
EOSC Future is structured around six thematic pillars that strategically group the work package tasks and activities and coherently present the key objectives and activities of the project to stakeholders:
- Pillar 1 on Policy & Strategy will coordinateand support a strategic vision for the future EOSC;
- Pillar 2 on Connection & Integration will connect and integrate EOSCinfrastructures, data, and services;
- Pillar 3 on Excellent Science & Interdisciplinarity will extend the EOSC value Chain withscientific use cases;
- Pillar 4 on Growth & Innovation will grow and innovate EOSC with value-added services;
- Pillar 5 onSkills & Training will train users and providers of the EOSC ecosystem;
- and Pillar 6 on Engagement & Communications willengage the wider EOSC Community at a global level.
EOSC Future will unlock the potential of European research via a vision of Open Science for Society by (1) bringing all majorstakeholders in the EOSC ecosystem together under one project umbrella to break the disciplinary and community silos andconsolidate key EOSC project outputs, (2) developing scientific use cases in collaboration with the thematic communitiesshowcasing the benefits and societal value of EOSC for doing excellent and interdisciplinary research, (3) engaging thewider EOSC community and increasing the visibility of EOSC through communications campaigns, marketing strategies, andphysical and online engagement events, and (4) including the EOSC community in developing the EOSC Portal (includingthe long tail of science, public and private sectors, and international partners) via co-creation open calls.
