Subject: [IP-OA_Forum] 3 days left to register for the European Diamond Capacity Hub Launch

Liebe Kolleg*innen,

im Januar launcht der European Diamond Capacity Hub zusammen mit dem ALMASI Projekt in Madrid! Noch bis zum 12.12.2024 kann man sich registrieren. Schnell sein lohnt sich, denn die Plätze sind begrenzt.

Deshalb möchten wir Ihnen gerne die Einladung und ein paar Infos zukommen lassen:

We are excited to announce that the programme for the joint launch event of the European Diamond Capacity Hub (EDCH) and the EU-funded ALMASI Project is now available, and the registration is officially open!

At the event, the key features of the European Diamond Capacity Hub will be presented, along with a range of opportunities for active participation and collaboration. The role of the ALMASI project in the global Diamond Open Access landscape and its component elements will be introduced.

The launch of the ALMASI Project will take place on 14th January 2025 from 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM (CET), and the launch of the European Diamond Capacity Hub (EDCH) will take place on 15th January 2025 from 10:30 AM to 6:00 PM (CET) in Madrid, Spain, at the headquarters of FECYT at MUNCYT (Museo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología).

The European Diamond Capacity Hub (EDCH) aims to strengthen the Diamond OA community in Europe by supporting European institutional, national and disciplinary capacity centres and Diamond publishers and service providers in their mission of Diamond OA scholarly publishing.

The ALMASI Project (Aligning and Mutualizing Nonprofit Open Access Publishing Services Internationally) seeks to develop a nonprofit, high-quality, and sustainable scholarly communication ecosystem spanning three regions: Africa, Europe, and Latin America.
