Open Science Festivals provide a great platform to talk science in an open way, with people that all find reuse of science more important. The creativity present at such events is just so energizing.

This is the second time a local Open Science Festival is organized in the area, with an Open Science Festival Maastricht in 2023. Of course, a year later Maastricht also hosted the 2024 national Open Science Festival.

This year’s event is co-organized by the (new) Open Science Community Parkstad and the Open Science Community Maastricht, with interdisciplinarity as main theme. The event will take day over two days, June 11 in Heerlen, and June 12 in Maastricht. You can register for either or for both days. Each days have plenary sessions and several parallel workshops, where you will dive into one of the many aspects of open science.

Looking forward to welcoming you in Limburg!
