<p style="text-align: justify;">A first step to take would be to identify key resources and directories of resources in the topic of Open Science and its components (Open Access, Open Data, Open Notebooks, Open source, Open Educational Resources, Citizen Science) and get involved in them:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><strong>OKF Open Science Working Group</strong> (<a href="http://science.okfn.org">http://science.okfn.org</a&gt;), a global network of researchers, librarians, students, policy-makers, publishers, data-curators, coders, entrepreneurs, activists and citizens who believe that Open Science is better science.</li>
<li><strong>Center for Open Science</strong> (<a href="https://cos.io/">https://cos.io/</a&gt;): a non-profit technology company providing free and open services to increase inclusivity and transparency of research, such as the Open Science Framework (OSF) which supports the entire research lifecycle: planning, execution, reporting, archiving, and discovery.</li>
<li><strong>Open Science Grid</strong> (<a href="https://www.opensciencegrid.org/">https://www.opensciencegrid.org/</a&gt;): a global community of scientist, researchers, and experts in &nbsp;High Performance Computing from all around the world.</li>
<li><strong>Open Science Data Cloud</strong> (<a href="https://www.opensciencedatacloud.org/">https://www.opensciencedatacloud…;): provides the scientific community with resources for storing, sharing, and analysing terabyte and petabyte- scale scientific datasets.</li>
<li><strong>Open Access Directory</strong> (<a href="http://oad.simmons.edu/oadwiki/Main_Page">http://oad.simmons.edu/oadwik…;) contains simple factual lists about open access (OA) to science and scholarship, maintained by the Open Access community at large.</li>
<li><strong>Open Science Directory</strong> (<a href="http://www.opensciencedirectory.net">http://www.opensciencedirectory.ne…;), a directory with about 13000 scientific journals that aims to provide a global search tool for all open access and special programs journal titles.</li>
<li><strong>Open Notebook Science Network</strong> (<a href="http://onsnetwork.org/">http://onsnetwork.org/</a&gt;), promotes Open Notebook Science, the practice of making the entire primary record of a research project publicly available online as it is recorded.</li>
<li><strong>Open Science Federation</strong> <a href="http://opensciencefederation.com/">http://opensciencefederation.com/</a…;
<li><strong>Open Science Framework</strong> <a href="https://osf.io/4znzp/wiki/home">https://osf.io/4znzp/wiki/home</a></li&…;
