UEFISCDI, together with the Open and Universal Science project (OPUS), Science Europe, Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment (CoARA) and the UNESCO Chair on Science and Innovation Policies (SNSPA), organizes the international Rethinking Research Assessment Conference, which will take place in Bucharest, Romania, on November 14th, 2024.

The event aims to address the pressing need for innovation in research assessment, and to approach the latter topic from a three-dimensional perspective - policies for research assessment, researchers on research assessment and last but not least, organizations’ perspectives on research assessment.


Globally, the landscape of research assessment is undergoing significant transformations, with an increasing number of organizations, both research funding and research performing, committing to principles that prioritize quality, transparency, and societal impact over traditional metrics, by adhering to initiatives such as CoARA, DORA and other.

The presentations and interventions will address the flowing topics:
• Policies for Research Assessment
• Researchers on Research Assessment
• Uses Cases on Research Assessment
