Independent Research Fund Denmark aims to support a higher degree of diversity in the assessment of researchers, including recognition of the importance of the various tasks and roles that are relevant and essential to research. Therefore, the fund has signed the Agreement on Reforming Research Assessment (ARRA), which aims to enhance the quality and impact of research.
The DFF CoARA Action Plan 2024-2027 outlines the fund’s activities. If you have any questions, you are welcome to contact the fund at arra@ufm.dk. If you have good ideas or comments, feel free to write to us as well.
