ALLEA - the European Federation of Academies of Sciences and Humanities - is hosting a webinar on 25 November 2020 with the Global Young Academy. The title of the webinar is: Research Assessments that Promote Scholarly Progress & Reinforce the Contract with Society. It addresses two questions that are central to the conduct of scholarly work: Why do we evaluate output of publicly funded research, and how do we make the evaluation match its purpose?
