Research Infrastructures mobilisation in response to COVID-19: lessons learned

This report provides a summary of the virtual workshop organised by OECD Global Science Forum and Science Europe in May 2021 and set up as a satellite event of the International Conference on Research Infrastructures (ICRI 2021). The report concentrates on key elements of the presentations and on the discussions that took place during sessions.

This joint workshop highlighted the important role that research infrastructures play within the research ecosystem, and the important roles that many of these facilities, services, and resources take beyond their primary focus: a fact that has been clearly highlighted during this COVID-19 pandemic.
