ANR Open Science Policy

Overview

The Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR) is France’s main public research funding agency. Since 2019, ANR has required all funded projects to submit a Data Management Plan (DMP) and comply with the mandates of Ouvrir la Science: open access to publications via HAL, FAIR data deposit in Recherche Data Gouv or a discipline-specific repository, and open source software publication. ANR has adopted the Science Europe Practical Guide DMP template as the basis for its own DMP requirements and mandates it as the default DMP structure for funded projects, implemented via OPIDoR. French researchers whose work is also funded under Horizon Europe are subject to both ANR and EC Open Science Policy requirements simultaneously.
