Dear colleagues,

I’m writing to share an invitation from DORA (sfdora.org 
<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/D8zgC6XQ4Lf1ZooJntpf5T5810R?domain=sfdora.org>), the 
global initiative that campaigns for and supports the reform of 
research(er) assessment practices, of which I'm proud to be a Steering 
Committee member.

DORA is beginning work on its 2027-2030 Strategic Plan and invites the 
research community to share their perspectives through a short, global 
survey 
<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/c6G5C71R2NTQnmmYOCWh1TofCPN?domain=bit.ly>. 
The goal is to understand what is working, where challenges persist, and 
where DORA can be most useful in supporting responsible research 
assessment across different contexts.

The survey is open to anyone involved or interested in research 
assessment reform, including researchers, institutional leaders, 
funders, publishers, research managers, and policy actors. Responses can 
be submitted as an individual or on behalf of an organisation. The 
survey takes approximately 10 minutes to complete, and is open until 30 
April 2026.

You can access the survey here:https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/c6G5C71R2NTQnmmYOCWh1TofCPN?domain=bit.ly 
<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/c6G5C71R2NTQnmmYOCWh1TofCPN?domain=bit.ly>. 
You can read more about the survey in the blogpost:

<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/nOAvC81V0PTzBjjg7F2iQTy_RCP?domain=sfdora.org/>. 


I encourage you (and others in your organisation or network) to take 
part, as community input will directly inform DORA’s priorities and 
activities for the next three years.

Best regards,
Richard de Grijs

(DORA Asia–Pacific Steering Committee representative)
