Monday 14 Apr 2025, 10:00 → 11:00 Europe/Zurich

Christine Kourkoumelis (National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (GR)), Claire Adam Bourdarios (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (FR)), Despina Hatzifotiadou (Universita e INFN, Bologna (IT))

10:00 → 10:20 Possible goals ?

Starting point: recommendation #5 and section 3.3 of the IPPOG strategy update input https://cds.cern.ch/record/2926853/files/ESPPU2026_IPPOG_20250327a.pdf

Christine:  enhance currently available Open Data visivility [ ATLAS & CMS on CERN portal,  Auger, GW ] + convince other experiments to join. Extend current list established by Claire on https://ippog.org/imc_partner

Despina:  there are more citizen science projects than the list presented here https://link.springer.com/article/10.1140/epjp/s13360-024-05940-3 . A presentation would fit in the upcoming Open Science Fair  https://www.opensciencefair.eu/

Claire: explore synergies with some of the goals of the CERN Open Science portal  https://openscience.cern/mission . Increase the literacy about the Science & Society forums & EU grants jargon within IPPOG [e.g. for projects looking for financial support]
