Each beneficiary of Horizon 2020 Programme is obliged to:
1. deposit a machine-readable electronic copy of the published version or final peer-reviewed manuscript accepted for publication (no later than the date of publication) and, where possible, associated data in a repository dedicated to the storage of scientific publications,
2. ensure open access to the publication (for selected projects also to the research data) through the green route (depositing in a repository) or the gold route (publishing in an open journal).
Are you an investigator of a Horizon 2020 project?
Upload a copy of the published version or the final peer-reviewed manuscript via OBD. The record and full text will be exported to the UPCE Digital Library. The publication information will be automatically entered into OpenAIRE.
UPCE results related to H2020 are stored in the UPCE Digital Library in the Horizon 2020 collection.

Personal data and the EC open research data policy
The term open data means that data is freely available, reusable and redistributable. The European Commission's (EC) Open Research Data Policy requires that data from all Horizon 2020 projects should be openly accessible from January 2017. The policy focuses primarily on data and metadata that are needed to validate results published in scientific publications, but also on other data specified in the Data Management Plan (DMP). The EC requires project investigators to deposit research data in data repositories and to ensure that third parties can mine, use, reproduce and disseminate the data. In certain cases, the concept of free use of research data may conflict with data protection rules, especially where personal data are involved. The best way to meet both policy and data protection requirements is to anonymise research personal data before it is openly made available.
The Amnesia tool will allow anonymisation of personal data such as name, birth number, etc.
