Working group participants
Participants include signatories, prospective signatories and supporters who are directly involved in advancing the activities and concrete outcomes of each Working Group.
Participation in the working groups is not limited to organizations that are signatories of the Barcelona Declaration. If your organization is interested in contributing to the transition to open research information, but has not (yet) signed the Declaration, the working groups would be a good way to get involved!
Below is a list of active working group participants who agreed to be listed on the Barcelona Declaration website.
