The Global Young Academy (GYA), the InterAcademy Partnership (IAP) and the International Science Council (ISC) joined forces to take stock of debates and developments in research evaluation worldwide, drawing on a scoping group of scientists and a series of regional consultations. The result is a working paper which analyses diverse research cultures and systems, and explores ways in which they might participate in and influence the reimagining of research evaluation/assessment for the 21st century, in an open and inclusive way. 'The Future of Research Evaluation' gives a review of the current state of research evaluation systems and discusses the most recent actions, response and initiatives taken by different stakeholders through several case examples from around the world. The goal of this discussion paper is to contribute to the ongoing debates and open questions on the future of research evaluation.
