The construction of the future EOSC has entered an important phase. The EOSC EU Node is expected to be presented to the scientific community in the frame of the EOSC Symposium in October 2024. Meanwhile, the discussions are intensifying on the aims, structure and tasks of the individual EOSC Nodes that will complement the EOSC EU Node to initiate the formation of the EOSC Federation
During the Brussels European Tripartite Event, the EOSC Tripartite Governance also mandated the EOSC Association to continue leading on the drafting of the EOSC Federation Handbook. The purpose of the Handbook is to create a single reference document describing the EOSC Federation, its operational structure and responsibilities, its legal and governance framework, and its technical operations.
