This is the right move, just as it was for COVID-19, but why wait for the next crisis? @POTUS @WhiteHouse We need a national open access policy to make ALL federally funded research immediately available to the public. #OAintheUSA #OpenScience #OpenAccess
To accelerate efforts to mitigate the #Monkeypox outbreak, @WHOSTP coordinated with 19 allies and partners in calling on publishers to immediately allow access to relevant research and data. whitehouse.gov/ostp/news-upd…

Take some time during #OAWeek this week to listen to today's new episode of the Unsettling Knowledge Inequities Podcast.
This latest episode features an important conversation on indigenous epistemologies and open science that is deeply relevant to this year's #OAWeek theme.
This #OAWeek, themed "It Matters How We Open Knowledge: Building Structural Equity", we invite you to reflect on Dr. Lorna Wanosts'a7 Williams speak to how the colonial tool of education systematically closes their doors to Indigenous knowledge systems.
