At the UNESCO General Conference in fall 2019, the organization was tasked with developing a Recommendation on Open Science. UNESCO describes open science as comprising open access, open data, and being “open to society” (UNESCO n.d. p. 2). It notes, however, that although the Open Science movement is gaining worldwide momentum, there is to date no consensus about how to define open science or its goals.
