Open Science Practices Used by Colombian Researchers of the Humanities Field

This article analyzes the predominant open science practices in Colombian humanistic institutions most recurred by researchers, under the premise that this way of doing science encompasses the sense of knowledge as a common good. A questionnaire was designed and answered by 173 researchers of the humanities field; results highlight that the most used practices of open participation by different social actors are the exchange and co -creation between researchers and citizens for research project development (46 %) and the recognition of participation and contribution of social actors in research results (44 %). In the open dialogue with other knowledge systems, results featured the valuing of ancestral and traditional knowledge of Indigenous, Black, Afro -Colombian, Raizal, Palenquero, Rom, peasant and local communities (40 %), as well as for their knowledge systems (30 %). Further, there were no obstacles perceived for open science implementation. In conclusion, the article endorses competency strengthening in this group of researchers for a much more situated and intentional use of technology, guided by the principles of open knowledge, collaboration and inclusion.
