The third edition of the [Open Science Retreat](https://events.digital-research.academy/event/47/), which will take place from **April 13-17, 2025**, in Beatenberg, near Interlaken in Switzerland!
This annual retreat is a chance to reset in nature while reflecting on open science topics to inspire your next career move. It’s a week of engaging discussions with international peers mixed in with one-on-one career mentoring/coaching, workshops, and plenty of networking/social activities. The retreat follows an [unconference](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconference) model, where topics are proposed and decided by the participants.
Whether you are just getting started with Open Science or are already an open hero, whether you are a researcher or provide research services, this retreat is for you!
The first two editions covered a wide range of topics from open science education to FAIR practices in software and incorporating Open Science in staff performance reviews.
[Application for participation](https://events.digital-research.academy/event/47/registrations/18/) is open until **February 5, 2025**. The retreat is family friendly and stipends are offered!!
While the majority of the retreat is in the unconference format, this year we want to source a few workshops from the community no longer than 2-3 hours to complement the [program](#20250413). We invite you to submit [an abstract](https://events.digital-research.academy/event/47/abstracts/) with your workshop idea on any topics related to open science, well-being, or career development!
