International Open Access Week 2024_ Panel Discussion_ Stellenbosch University_(Hybrid Event) In-Person / Online

Stellenbosch University Library and Information Service invites you to join us in celebrating International Open Access Week 2024. This year's theme, "Community over Commercialisation," highlights the critical importance of ensuring equitable access to research and knowledge for all. The theme emphasises the role that academic institutions and scholars play in advancing open access and promoting collaboration over commercial interest. At Stellenbosch University, we encourage the academic and research communities to prioritise open access initiatives that foster inclusivity, transparency, and innovation in scholarly subscription-based journals and ensure that research is accessible to everyone, regardless of location or financial resources.

Whether you are new to the concept of open access or a seasoned advocate, this event offers something for everyone. Join us as we explore the latest developments, exchange ideas, and contribute to shaping a more open and equitable future for global scholarship.
