These posts are a follow up to the 2021 OASPA work with many stakeholders which considered how best to enable a healthy landscape with greater diversity in the economic system that supports open access publishing.
We felt that a greater diversity of views, and particularly more views from outside of Europe, were needed to balance our thinking and guide next steps. In this second post, OASPA's Program Manager Malavika Legge reports further on her work gathering non-European perspectives on the work done so far and explores what exactly do we mean by an 'OA market'? The post also outlines some future work OASPA will be undertaking on increasing equity in open access publishing.
