The GATE team presented GATE at the ENRIO Congress 2025 (September 22-24, 2025 in Ljubljana, Slovenia). In her presentation Marie Alavi highlighted the work and added value GATE brings into the Open Science (OS) community.

(1) By collecting knowledge from knowledge creators about OS guiding thoughts and practices (via the GATE Service) GATE continuously disseminates community-based knowledge to OS communities. This enables them to take action: educators can optimise and increase the visibility of their materials, infrastructures can upscale their systems, and funders and policymakers can align their policies accordingly. 

The talk also emphasised three further activities that make GATE a unique initiative within the OS and research landscape: (2) GATE is designed to continuously collect this information so that communities are consistently informed about OS development. In addition, (3) communities are supported in workshops to develop concrete and targeted actions to strengthen OS within their fields of activity or institutions (see the report from our last workshop at the Metascience UnConference). (4) GATE not only provides information on general OS-relevant guiding thoughts and practices, but also emphasises from the very start the importance of gathering and sharing knowledge about OS at the intersection with AI. 

This makes GATE an important knowledge resource for the entire OS community: knowledge creators and disseminators, community representatives, researchers, policy makers, funders and data infrastructures. Read the entire report here.

ONGOING CALL TO ACTION: OS Knowledge Creators are invited to enrich the knowledge of the entire community to share their Open Science knowledge embedded in their resources via the GATE Service (ca. 15 minutes).
