As 2024 comes to a close, we’re proud to reflect on the critical role SCOSS has played in connecting essential open infrastructure resources to funding and creating a space for collaboration and support. This year, thanks to your pledges, we’ve made meaningful, sustainable progress.

WE’RE OPEN FOR PLEDGES: SCOSS Launches Round 6
Now in its sixth year, SCOSS is excited to announce the four new Open Science infrastructure partners that will join the SCOSS Family. After careful evaluation, SCOSS has selected the African Journals Online (AJOL), Episciences, Make Data Count, and SciPost for this sixth funding cycle. These organisations are seeking help in both creating and maintaining sustainable futures.
Funding boosts operations and innovation for the SCOSS Family of Open Infrastructures
SCOSS support helps Open Infrastructures to secure funds for initiatives that traditional funding sources do not cover.
Imagining a world without open infrastructures
Imagine a world where thousands of peer-reviewed journals, books, datasets, and other research output are no longer available online, a world without persistent identifiers, registries, and standards for data exchange, where technical development priorities are not in alignment with community values, and where the creation of standards is not community-driven.
