The Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA) recognizes the need to improve how outputs of scholarly research are evaluated. Developed in 2012, the declaration has since become a worldwide initiative covering all scholarly disciplines and key stakeholders including funders, publishers, professional societies, institutions and researchers. Join us to discuss how DORA enhances research and the opportunities it brings.
