Open science and dissemination of research

The Université Lumière Lyon 2 promotes innovative and open research and is committed to the dissemination of research findings, ensuring that scientific research results are open to all (researchers, students, companies, and citizens) freely, responsibly, accurately and broadly. We believe that making knowledge accessible to all is not only useful for research but also for the economy and society.

Some specific actions include:

• HAL, Lyon 2’s Open Archive

  The open archives are intended for the deposit and dissemination of scientific documents, already published or not, emanating from French and international teaching and research institutions, in all disciplines.
• The “Presses Universitaries de Lyon”, Lyon 2’s Publishing House

  Université Lumière Lyon 2’s publishing house, les Presses Universitaires de Lyon or PUL, has been publishing works in the Humanities and Social Sciences since 1976.

• The promotion of our researches publications
