The European Network of Indicators Designers (ENID) is an open network with the aim of promoting the reflection on the design of new Science and Technology Indicators between researchers, stakeholders and indicator producers. It is a structural activity of the Network of Excellence on Policies for Research and Innovation in the Move towards the European Research Area (PRIME), but it is open also to non-PRIME members. After the end of PRIME, ENID will be transformed in an association (see the presentation at the Oslo Indicators Conference and the statutes). Information on how to join the association will be posted soon on this website.

ENID is coordinated by the Observatoire des Sciences et Techniques in Paris (see list of members). For information on ENID activities please contact Benedetto Lepori.
