The SNSF requires its grantees to publish their publications and research data openly. The SNSF has been a member of cOAlitionS since 2022. Grantees funded as of January 1, 2023 must adhere to new guidelines. You can find more information about the SNSF's requirements in our UBlog and on the SNSF homepage.
To fulfill the requirements of the SNSF, the University Library provides the institutional repository ZORA and various tools to find Open Access journals.

How to find Open Access journals
Be aware: Since February 2024, the SNSF no longer funds Open Access publications in Special Issues. In addition, from January 1, 2025 onwards, all authors must submit their manuscript versions via ChronosHub if they wish to have the APCs paid by the SNSF. Authors who have already prepaid the APCs to the publisher directly will not receive any refunds.
Horizon Europe is the EU's framework program to promote research and innovation and it is the successor to the Horizon 2020 program. It obliges its researchers to ensure open access to their publications. Switzerland currently has the status of a non-associated third country with regard to "Horizon Europe".
