|Is About=The Model Open Science Policy of Nigeria (2024), produced by the Committee of Vice Chancellors of Nigerian Universities, provides national guidance for open science and open access, promoting openness as a default while respecting ethics, privacy, IP, and security. It links openness to research quality, reproducibility, rapid knowledge translation, and equitable access. The policy covers open access publications with preferred licenses, FAIR data principles, data management plans, and use of trusted repositories. It outlines responsibilities for researchers and institutions, justifies embargoes when necessary, and encourages enabling infrastructure and alignment with international frameworks like Plan S. Emphasis is placed on equity, responsible handling of sensitive data, and quality of openness, with guidance for implementation by researchers, institutions, funders, and publishers to ensure practical, interoperable, and inclusive open science.
