Webinar title: PLOS Webinar: “Open 2.0 --Achieving the Impossible; Diamond Open Access in Europe.”

Date: June 20th 2.30-3.30 PM CEST

Can scholarly communication exist without paywalls or APCs? The Diamond Open Access model is taking center stage as a vision for a more equitable and community-driven system of knowledge sharing. And the momentum is building. Across Europe and beyond, a growing number of stakeholders — from funders and institutions to policymakers — are actively embracing Diamond OA. Dedicated funding streams are being established, and open science policies have started encouraging researchers to publish in Diamond OA journals. But can this model deliver on its ambitious goals?

Join us for a thought-provoking panel-style webinar, "Achieving the Impossible; Diamond Open Access in Europe." Hear from funders, researchers, and institutional leaders as they share insights on the promise, practice, and challenges of this emerging approach. Whether you're curious about policy shifts or practical implementation, this session will give you a front-row seat to this emerging open access movement.

Register here.

 

I am looking forward to seeing you in the audience. 

Regards, 

Agata Morka
