  36. Recommendations (II) • Promotion of the national and international collaboration respecting the specific average number of co-authors in each discipline. • To encourage balance quality in the different scientific areas by the international collaboration. • Which are the countries that are the best to collaborate with? • Which are such institutions? • Which are such research groups? • To increase the number of researchers at international level • Mobility of researchers • To encourage the Slovenian researchers that work in the other countries to work in Slovenia • To encourage foreign researchers to collaborate to Slovenian ones by projects or grants

  37. Recommendations (III) • The visibility of the Slovenian results of research has to became a priority at national and institutional level: • To develop and to encourage the use of institutional repositories for the researchers. Formal adhesion to the declarations of Berlin and Budapest • Creation of national repositories. Diffusion in Google Scholar and other international diffusers of the world • Approval of a protocol for the inclusion of works related to the concession of incentives. • To apply all possible services for the international visibility of Slovenian research • To improve the website of institutions in order to obtain a greater visibility of the Slovenian research in the world.
