On December 2, 2025, COAR and ASAPbio organised a meeting of about 25 implementers and supporters comprising Publish, Review, Curate (PRC). The main topic of the meeting was to assess the interest in forming an Alliance that would raise the visibility and status of PRC and facilitate greater coordination across the diverse PRC community. Participants discussed the challenges and opportunities of the PRC model and expressed their support for moving forward with an Alliance in 2026.
Interim Working Group
As a next step, in early 2026 COAR and ASAPbio formed an Interim Working Group to assist with determining the nature of such an Alliance. The initial focus will be to identify priority issues for PRC implementers and develop an appropriate organisational structure for the Alliance.
The aim is to launch the PRC Alliance in the second half of 2026. The Alliance will be a membership association open to PRC implementers and supporters.
More information about how to participate in the Alliance will be available in the second half of 2026. Stay tuned to this website for more information.
