SSHOC-CH Association
The SSHOC-CH Association was founded on April 24, 2024 in Bern. Its role is to create and run the Social Science & Humanities Open Cluster Switzerland SSHOC-CH.
SSHOC-CH strives to identify synergies and fostering collaborations between the social sciences and humanities, and to build an ecosystem of national infrastructures and expertise supporting scholars from social sciences and humanities in their research and in managing their data in the spirit of Open Science and FAIR principles. Parallely, SSHOC-CH is active at the research-policy interface by contributing to the discussions about the Swiss Roadmap for research infrastructures and national ORD Strategy.
SSHOC-CH provides a framework for new research infrastructures, and complements existing infrastructures and their activities through co-operation and support, which are represented by a member of the SSHOC-CH Association. SSHOC-CH establishes the link to SSHOC at European level and to other national clusters.
