The Open Science movement aims at sharing scientific insights with the broadest possible audience of experts as well as interested lay people.
Open Science is seen to play a pivotal role for the cause of scientific progress, be it in terms of widening participation across the globe and across individual parts of populations, in terms of making the results of investments covered by tax payers’ contributions more readily available or in terms of founding measures and programs based strictly on facts and findings rather than impressions and feelings.
Opens Science is the umbrella term for a plethora of different aspects of modern societies, including but not limited to Open Access, Open Source (Software), Open Data, Open Innovation and many others.

repro4everyone – Reproducibility for Everyone
Reproducibility for Everyone is a worldwide project by volunteers in research, industry and startups aiming to become the one-stop-shop for reproducibility resources. The initiative aims to provide expertise about reproducibility tools and best practices by producing resources which may help grow researchers' awareness of and ability to do reproducible research. There are regular workshops and resources such as handouts, articles, posters and other material available online. The focus is on life sciences for now but in the long run the goal is to produce and offer resources for other research disciplines, too.
