The DORA Movement in Canada: Working Together to Advance Assessment of Research Excellence

The DORA movement is evolving in Canada. 44 Canadian organizations have signed, including postsecondary institutions, research institutes, and all major funders. What does this mean for researchers across disciplines and career stages, for funders, for the public, for research administrators?
