<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the <a href="https://codata.org/open-science-for-a-global-transformation-codata-coordinated-submission-to-the-unesco-open-science-consultation/">CODATA-coordinated submission to the UNESCO Consultation on Open Science,</a> we stated
clearly the view that “Paywall publishing does not serve the interests of (publicly-funded) science and the profit margins of the traditional publishers, largely from public funding, are unacceptable.” In agreement with ISC, we recommended that “scholarly
publishing needs fundamentally reenvisioning such that it is unambiguously put to the service of science as a global public good.” These views are also being articulated in the discussions of the <a href="https://en.unesco.org/science-sustainable-future/open-science/advisory-committee">UNESCO
Open Science Advisory Committee, of which I am vice-chair</a>.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Elsevier’s profit margins (34% in 2019) and negotiating practices led to responses from a number of countries and universities (see <a href="https://libraries.mit.edu/scholarly/publishing/elsevier-fact-sheet/">MIT Factsheet</a> and <a href="https://osc.universityofcalifornia.edu/uc-publisher-relationships/uc-and-elsevier/">University
of California</a>). <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The appearance of Anita’s post on the CODATA International list elicited a number of expressions of concern, in the light of which we reminded subscribers to the list that it is open to third party posts and the appearance of a given third
party post does not imply the endorsement of CODATA (message reproduced below).<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I would be reluctant to apply a ‘no platform’ policy and do not think that the analogy holds between a discussion list for data issues (albeit with 3000 subscribers) and the ‘GAFA' social media platforms in the way that Geoffrey suggests.
I would prefer to let subscribers decide whether the initiative advertised is ‘green-washing’ or ’SDG-washing’ or is something of interest. In this instance, ’no-platforming’ such posts feels to me too much like blocking information to an informed community.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I would be interested to hear views from other subscribers on this matter in general and specifically whether you would prefer that the CODATA Secretariat should filter more actively posts that are sent to the CODATA International list
by third party organisations?<o:p></o:p></p>

citizens. That this should happen in things as profoundly important as the SDGs is doubly worrying. CODATA should think carefully before acting as the technology companies do, by providing a platform for material for which they claim no responsibility.

<b>I would like to take this opportunity, therefore, to clarify the nature of the CODATA International list and remind readers that the appearance of a third party post on this list does not necessary imply endorsement by CODATA.<br>
</b> <br>
The CODATA International list has over 3000 subscribers from around the world. It serves three functions:<br>
<br>
1) For CODATA to announce its activities, events, outputs to that community (e.g. recent announcements of the <a href="https://codata.org/call-for-sessions-posters-and-lightning-talks-international-fair-convergence-symposium-2020-deadline-20-july-2020/">FAIR
Convergence Symposium</a>, the <a href="https://codata.org/initiatives/strategic-programme/codata-connect/">CODATA Connect webinar series</a>, our <a href="https://codata.org/initiatives/strategic-programme/decadal-programme/ddi-cross-domain-integration-review-webinar-series/">collaboration
with DDI-CDI</a> and so on).<br>
2) For third parties to do the same (a number of organisations and projects use the list regularly for this, including DDI, the GEO, geospatial and AGU communities and so on).<br>
3) For discussion threads of particular issues (for example the discussion that led to the <a href="https://codata.org/open-science-for-a-global-transformation-codata-coordinated-submission-to-the-unesco-open-science-consultation/">UNESCO submission</a> or
recent discussions of data feudalism).<br>
<br>
The message from Anita is an instance of function 2.<br>
<br>
The CODATA International list is moderated. However, that simply means that someone from the CODATA Secretariat (generally Asha or myself) checks the post to filter out spam before allowing it through the system. This is a light touch process that we use
to eliminate obvious spam and some bad practice (e.g. kind but unnecessarily repeated messages to thank the original poster, misdirected requests to be removed from the list, and some obviously irrelevant posts…). We do not filter more heavily than that and I
would not be in favour of blocking posts from certain organisations whatever their reputation among some of our community.<br>
<br>
We encourage discussion and the sharing of views on this list. We encourage organisations and projects other than CODATA to use the list to reach this community and to publicise their activities where relevant and of interest. It is important to reiterate,
however, that the appearance of the third party post on this list does not necessary imply endorsement by CODATA.<br>
<br>
With very best wishes,<br>
<br>
Simon.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Five years ago, the UN General Assembly set forth 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs) designed to pave the path to a more sustainable future. The goals are measured against
various targets and indicators to be achieved by 2030. To make the best decision on which research to fund, program evaluators must have a clear view of the landscape of research supporting the SDGs. This understanding can reveal gaps requiring additional
funding and support.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

facilitate matching research publications to the relevant SDGs. The purpose of this work is to create an open knowledge base to help identify which research supports which SDG. The aggregated crowdsourced set of article identifiers matched to SDG’s will be
made available through Elsevier’s ICSR Lab, to support the scholarly community.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
