Dr Sandersan Onie | Open Scholarship in the Global South |

About the speaker Dr. Sandersan Onie is a Post-Doctoral Fellow at the Black Dog Institute in mental health and suicide prevention, overseeing projects across Asia Pacific. His work includes using Google Ads as a suicide prevention initiative, writing a book for peer support geared towards countries with inadequate mental health resources, as well as developing a national suicide prevention strategy for Indonesia. His work - especially pertaining to mental health in Indonesia - has been extensively covered in outlets such as Forbes, CNN, and ABC. He is also passionate about building open science practices in the Global South, which includes leading invited science policy briefs for the Indonesian government, being a part of the executive committee of the Society for Improvement of Psychological Science and penning a Nature comment on building open science in the Global South. About the talk Recent advancements in science have led to strides in improving the transparency, credibility, and quality of scientific output. However, much of the focus and activity has occurred in the Global North despite only comprising 20% of the global population. Further, researchers in the Global South face myriad challenges, despite being best positioned to take on critical problems in their regions. Therefore, I argue for science to have its full impact, we must work together to empower researchers across the globe - and not just a small subset. In this talk, I discuss the state, challenges, and opportunities for Open Science in the Global South - a critical component to ensuring the work produced there is usable for decision making and policy. Specifically, I discuss recent developments in government policy and ranking systems which often prioritize quantity over quality, the history of research and how it has led to universities being equipped for education but not knowledge generation, as well as how stakeholders in the Global North and Global South can work together to address many of these challenges and design a research system that is transparent, credible, and useful for all.

About Open Research: A vision for the future: Recent years have seen greater adoption of practices aiming to improve the reproducibility and transparency of research. These practices, however, are still not universally endorsed. Moreover, issues surrounding the research culture, its openness and diversity, persist. This free half-day conference intends to highlight the importance of open research in improving the academic ecosystem. We will hear from a diverse set of speakers, ranging from early career researchers to senior academics, from around the world discussing the future of open research practices. This event is interdisciplinary and open to all. About RIOT Science Club: The RIOT Science Club gives talks/workshops on Reproducible, Interpretable, Open & Transparent Science.
