Call to take part in the second round of RI-PATHS workshops
As a follow-up to the scoping workshops held in November-December 2018, RI-PATHS project team invites the RI community to express interest in joining the second round of participatory workshops on socio-economic impact assessment. Different from the first round of workshops where the emphasis was placed on identifying the main impact areas and co-designing the impact pathway logic, these workshops will focus on finding suitable indicators, metrics and assessment methods in specific impact areas. Emphasis will be placed also on discussing the existing best practices for data gathering and future data needs.
Workshops will be held on 08/05 at DESY (Hamburg), 09/05 at ELIXIR (Cambridge) and 10/05/2019 at ALBA (Barcelona).

OCRE enables easy cloud usage through the European Open Science Cloud
The Open Clouds for Research Environments project (OCRE), aims to accelerate cloud adoption in the European research community, by bringing together cloud providers, Earth Observation (EO) organisations and the research and education community, through ready-to-use service agreements and €9.5 million in adoption funding. Cloud-based services offer the European research community a wealth of powerful tools, but for many researchers, these are currently out of reach, with suitable services difficult to find and select.
OCRE, which launched in January 2019, will address this by running a pan-European tender and establishing framework agreements with cloud service providers that meet the specific requirements of the research community, saving institutions the time-consuming and complex process of doing this themselves.
