Open access initiatives to fight the pandemic

Abstract

Introdução: With the pandemic, the number of research on COVID-19 has grown at a fast pace, forcing the scientific communication system to improve ahead of speed and efficiency requirements in disseminating scientific results by making Open Science a key point for achieving the end of this global crisis. Objective: This study aims to analyse the Transparency Covid-19 and Open Covid Pledge initiatives, bringing into light the discussion on open data and intellectual property in the advancement of science, scientific collaboration and the socialisation of knowledge. Method: This is a qualitative descriptive search carried out through literature review (2010 to 2021) and desk research to provide critical analysis on open data and intellectual property. Results: The fight against the pandemic highlights the importance of initiatives, which seek to assess the quality of transparency of open data made available by public bodies, as well as promoting social participation by monitoring and stimulating government actions contributing to the formulation and conduct of public policies. IP sharing has a key role to play when it is an incentive tool rather than a barrier to access information and data for technological innovation and the advancement of science. Conclusion: We conclude that the discussion on open data and IP, by looking at Open Science, shows us the importance of Open Science in facing the pandemic on their barriers and uses for health and society towards socialisation and knowledge sharing.
