IDentificAtion of hurdles to open access publishing for researchers with weak institutional ties โ epistemic injustice in scientific publishing
The IDAHO project was featured at the NISO Plus 2024 Conference, hosted by the National Information Standards Organization in Baltimore, MD on February 13-14, 2024. Nataliia Kaliuzhna presented the project's objectives and current state of progress during the session titled "Open Scholarship and Bibliodiversity" (Tuesday, February 13th between 1:30 and 2:45 pm EST). The IDAHO project, funded by German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), is dedicated to fostering an inclusive, equitable, and diverse open access (OA) culture. It investigates the challanges and obstacles that reseachers with weak institutional ties face in the realm of OA publishing. Specifically, project targets independent researchers, refugee scientists, individuals from the Citizen Science domain, and those who conduct research within non-governmental institutions (NGOs) who lack adequate institutional support, including funding for article processing charges (APCs). The ultimate goal of the IDAHO is to derive a set of evidence-based recommendations for science policies and publishers, which could eliminate or mitigate identified burdens.
