Keeping European research open and secure: making research security work in practice

Research security is moving rapidly from policy development towards implementation. Across Europe, governments, funders and research organisations are developing new approaches to risk assessment, due diligence, institutional support and decision-making.

This INSPIRING ERA online event will explore how research security is being approached in practice while safeguarding academic freedom, openness and international collaboration. Participants will hear about current European developments and different approaches being taken at national, institutional and funder level.

Through short presentations, practical examples and a panel discussion, the event will bring together perspectives from across Europe to explore key implementation challenges, share experiences and consider what is needed to make research security effective, proportionate and workable in practice.
