A RBHE and the principles of Open Science

Keywords: Brazilian Journal of History of Education, Open Science

Abstract

The experience of managing a scientific journal involves continuities and changes. We will begin this editorial by analyzing actions that modified the routines of RBHE throughout 2025. The first is related to a revision of the journal's standards, affecting readers, authors, and consultants. This involves the implementation of the principles of open science, which aims at "a transformation [...] of the traditional modus operandi of fostering, designing, conducting, and, particularly, communicating research. The objective is to prioritize the collaborative nature of research and democratize access to and use of scientific knowledge" (Packer & Santos, 2019).
