Creative Commons, Open Climate Campaign. Climate change, and the resulting harm to our global biodiversity, is one of the world's most pressing challenges. The complexity of the climate crisis requires global, national, and local actions informed by multidisciplinary research and educational resources. Creative Commons, SPARC and EIFL are launching a 4-year global Open Climate Campaign to address this challenge.
The goal of this multi-year campaign is to promote open access to research and OER to accelerate progress towards solving the climate crisis and preserving global biodiversity. If we are going to solve these global challenges, the knowledge (research, data, educational resources, software, hardware) about them must be open.

Lancaster University. As international funders make welcome moves towards OA publishing models, it is crucial to ensure the benefits and opportunities remain equitable, communal and accessible to the broad academic community. The Open Book Collective is currently registering as UK charity with the aim to address these issues and our online platform is scheduled to launch in summer 2022. This talk will describe our work and its importance in the current OA landscape.

Shuttleworth Foundation, Erin McKiernan & John McKiernan
This project was born out of our passion for opening up research, making it assessible and reusable by all. We view access to information as a human right and think it should be treated as such. And we believe it will take students and researchers at all levels of academia to bring about culture change. By sharing our work, we can stimulate learning, innovation, and discovery.
Many researchers support the idea of increasing access to research, but worry about the implications for their career of sharing their work. We built this site primarily for researchers, to educate them about all the different ways they can be open and how sharing can be beneficial for their careers. We also aim to provide information and resources for those working in open advocacy. All resources herein all openly licensed and their reuse in encouraged.
