Universitat Jaume I (UJI) has built a comprehensive track record in Open Science and Research Ethics through EU-funded institutional change projects and university-wide action plans. Within ETHNA System (H2020), UJI piloted an ethics-governance framework for Responsible Research & Innovation—combining an ETHNA Office with four practical tools (ethical code, ethics committee, ethics hotline, and process indicators)—and integrated these practices into internal procedure. From 2023, UJI has served as a national lead in CATALISI (Horizon Europe), focusing on institutional transformation with acceleration services. This workstream covers Open Science adoption and reform of research assessment, developing monitoring/assessment toolkits, action plans, and policy recommendations for structural change—an approach documented in the project’s official materials. At university level, UJI approved its ENCA-UJI Action Plan (2023–2027) in June 2024, aligning with Spain’s National Open Science Strategy across four axes: digital infrastructures, FAIR data, open access, and incentives/training. The plan explicitly ties to UJI’s Open Access Declaration (2020) and the Code of Good Practices in Research & Doctorate, ensuring policy coherence and implementation capacity. Universitat Jaume I In parallel, UJI joined CoARA (January 2023) and adopted a five-year action plan to progressively reform internal research assessment—prioritising quality and impact, diversity, inclusion, and collaboration—with a completion horizon in January 2028. Universitat Jaume I What this means for clients: we bring field-tested governance models, ready-to-adapt policies and templates, action-plan design and monitoring, and capacity-building programmes spanning open access and ethics governance—grounded in UJI’s own transformation pathway and externally validated through EU initiatives
