It proposes a more flexible and holistic framework for recognition and rewards in academic research and adopts three core principles: more transparency; greater breadth; and comprehensive assessments as opposed to one-sided use of indicators.<\/p><h4>Broad Evaluation<\/h4><p>\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"2654\" class=\"elementor elementor-2654\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-5a6cb309 quote-rechts elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5a6cb309\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-1d2e0e70 quote-rechts\" data-id=\"1d2e0e70\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c31210e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c31210e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h6><em>&#8216;The aim is to facilitate interaction between the documentable and\/or measurable quantities and the applicant\u2019s qualitative assessment of these.&#8217;<\/em><\/h6>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\tThe matrix consists of six areas of expertise to be assessed: research output; research process; service and leadership; research impact; teaching and supervising; and professional experience. In each category, relevant results, experience, competencies and activities can be described, documented and reflected on. The matrix contains examples of relevant competencies, activities and results for each of the categories in order to show what can be worthy of merit, but the list is not exhaustive. Components that are added under the different categories must be adapted to the context in which they are to be used. It\u2019s important that the applicant gives a subjective assessment of their own results and competencies. The aim is to facilitate interaction between the documentable and\/or measurable quantities and the applicant\u2019s qualitative assessment of these.<\/p><p>The matrix can be combined for different purposes and needs. And because it is a matrix, the assessment can be adapted to emphasise different competencies for different tasks\/positions\/career stages depending on both the individual\u2019s career and the institutional needs. Such an expanded research assessment approach aims to incentivise and reward a broader range of academic activities, and ultimately to improve academic culture and the quality of research. At this moment in time, Norwegian universities are implementing NOR-CAM locally.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f5661c8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"f5661c8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;youtube_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube.com\\\/watch?v=Qyjc_gRp0ys&quot;,&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;youtube&quot;,&quot;controls&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-wrapper elementor-open-inline\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-video\"><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b256806 robbert elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b256806\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">In this video, Alexander Jensenius presents the toolbox and its motivation.

There is a broad international agreement from the research community on the urgent need to reform the existing research assessment practices. The Dutch approach shows strong alignment to the Agreement as it focuses more on the quality of all types of contributions and less on the number of publications.<\/p><h4>Ten principles<\/h4><p>Assessment processes relying predominantly on journal- and publication-based metrics can be a hurdle in the recognition of diverse contributions and may negatively affect the quality and impact of research. They also contribute to an unhealthy research culture and an unaffordable publication system. That is why the <em>Agreement on Reforming Research Assessment<\/em> establishes a common direction for research assessment reform, while respecting organisations\u2019 autonomy.<\/p><p>The Agreement contains principles and commitments regarding scientific integrity, quality and impact, the diversity of scientific activities and collaboration. It is based on the following overarching principles:<\/p><ol><li>Comply with ethics and integrity rules and practices.<\/li><li>Safeguard freedom of scientific research.<\/li><li>Respect the autonomy of research organisations.<\/li><li>Ensure independence and transparency of the data, infrastructure and criteria necessary for research assessment and for determining research impacts.<\/li><li>Focus research assessment criteria on quality.<\/li><li>Recognise the contributions that advance knowledge and the (potential) impact of research results.<\/li><li>Recognise the diversity of research activities and practices, with a diversity of outputs, and reward early sharing and open collaboration.<\/li><li>Use assessment criteria and processes that respect the variety of scientific disciplines, research types and career stages and that acknowledge multi-, inter- and trans-disciplinary as well as inter-sectoral approaches, when applicable.<\/li><li>Acknowledge and valorise the diversity in research roles and careers, including roles outside academia.<\/li><li>Ensure gender equality, equal opportunities and inclusiveness.<\/li><\/ol><p>These principles can be summarised in four core commitments:<\/p><ul><li>Recognise the diversity of contributions to, and careers in, research, in accordance with the needs and the\u202fnature of the research.<\/li><li>Base research assessment primarily\u202fon qualitative evaluation for which peer review is central, supported by responsible use\u202fof quantitative indicators.<\/li><li>Abandon the inappropriate uses in research assessment\u202fof journal- and publication-based metrics, in particular the inappropriate uses of Journal Impact Factor (JIF) and h-index.<\/li><li>Avoid the\u202fuse of rankings\u202fof\u202fresearch organisations in\u202fresearch assessment.<\/li><\/ul><h4>The Coalition<\/h4><p>Following this Agreement, the Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment (CoARA) was created for all signatory organisations that have subscribed to the Overarching Principles and Code of Conduct. The Coalition offers a space for its members to learn from each other\u2019s experiences, to advance the process of research assessment reform in Europe and beyond. In line with the Agreement, it is the Coalition\u2019s vision that the assessment of research, researchers and research organisations needs to recognise the diverse outputs, practices and activities that maximise the quality and impact of research. The signatories want to enable systemic reform of research assessment on the basis of common principles and commitments within an agreed timeframe, as set out in the Agreement. Through the exchange of information and mutual learning between all those willing to improve research assessment practices.<\/p><h4>Ways in which interested parties can engage with

systems. Latin America and the Caribbean are no exception. CLACSO-FOLEC emphasises the need to recognise and reward open access scientific publication and participation in content evaluation.<\/h3><p>Research assessment systems are highly fragmentated among countries and between scientific systems and higher education institutions, so there is a complex mixture of evaluation procedures, each with its own objectives, scope and assessment dynamics. In addition, mainstream journal-based metrics, such as the Journal Impact Factor (JIF), achieved an incremental centrality in the research assessment practices and methodologies used by funding agencies and national science councils. Moreover, academic publishing systems and infrastructure are publicly owned and non-commercial, but the Diamond Open Access publishing circuit is not adequately contemplated in evaluation systems. These trends limit the local autonomy of research agendas, discourage good open access practices and reduce the potential interaction with society, while making other contributions made by researchers invisible.<\/p><h4>Research quality and socially relevant science<\/h4><p>In this context, 2019 saw members of the Latin American Council of Social Sciences (CLACSO), a network that currently consists of 898 research centres in 56 countries in Latin America and other continents, promote the creation of the Latin American Forum for Research Assessment (in Spanish, FOLEC), conceived as a space for mobilising research evaluation transformation, conducting research on research, and monitoring reforms. In 2022, a set of principles and guidelines for research assessment reform were approved by CLACSO\u2019s 27th General Assembly. The document, known as <a href=\"https:\/\/biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar\/bitstream\/CLACSO\/169747\/1\/Declaration-of-Principes.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Declaration of Principles: A New Research Assessment towards a Socially Relevant Science in Latin America and the Caribbean<\/em><\/a>, encompasses research quality and socially relevant science, multilingualism and interdisciplinarity and recovers principles of the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA) and open science. At present, CLACSO-FOLEC\u2019s <em>Declaration of Principles<\/em> has around 300 adherents, half of which are universities, research centres and academies, and the rest are scientific journals, repositories and science councils and agencies.<\/p><h4>Crucial factors<\/h4><p>\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"2686\" class=\"elementor elementor-2686\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-5a6cb309 quote-rechts elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5a6cb309\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-1d2e0e70 quote-rechts\" data-id=\"1d2e0e70\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c31210e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c31210e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h6><em>&#8216;It is evident that there is now a growing momentum towards broader and more inclusive policies, methodologies, and processes for assessing research careers.&#8217;<\/em><\/h6>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\tIn dialogue with the Dutch Recognition &amp; Rewards programme, CLACSO-FOLEC endorses the assessment of different dimensions of researchers\u2019 activities in the region. These include teaching, mentoring, public communication of science, citizen science and engagement with society, also called \u2018extension\u2019, and of a diversity of research outputs, for example books, chapters and reports. To better evaluate social relevance in social sciences and humanities, it encourages indicators of knowledge co-production with the community, fundamental research focused on use, social intervention and creation for social purposes, as well as basic research. CLACSO-FOLEC emphasises the need to recognise and reward open access scientific publication and participation in content evaluation in repositories and diamond journals, as well as other components of open science.<\/p><h4>Growing momentum<\/h4><p>It is evident that there is now a growing momentum towards broader and more inclusive policies, methodologies, and processes for assessing research careers.

It also states that there is growing momentum for reform towards broader and more inclusive assessments of research, but that there are still challenges that organisations face to make such changes, too. To help alleviate these challenges and achieve new ways and means of assessing research worldwide, research funders have agreed on nine principles. The Statement of Principles was signed on 31 May in The Hague, during the annual meeting of the Global Research Council (GRC), the collaboration of national research councils and research funders around the world.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fad3f6c elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"fad3f6c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d22bc91 elementor-align-start elementor-mobile-align-start elementor-icon-list--layout-traditional elementor-list-item-link-full_width elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-list\" data-id=\"d22bc91\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon-list.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"elementor-icon-list-items\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-camera\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Photo: NWO<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2c993b6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"2c993b6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7308e5b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7308e5b\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2dad0bf\" data-id=\"2dad0bf\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bae001c elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"bae001c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Four cases from abroad The international playing field The Recognition &amp; Rewards programme is a unique joint programme.
