Open as a Prerequisite for Solving the Climate Crisis Wikimania 2024

Join this session to hear from organizations who are collaborating on projects and initiatives to profile the role of open in addressing the climate crisis. We will profile successes to date, highlight upcoming projects, and invite participation in our community-driven Open Goes COP movement. We believe that open access to climate change research will enable faster and more equitable solutions to the most pressing issues of our time: climate change and the loss of biodiversity. Our panel will provide a case study of enabling global open access policies and highlight our experimentations in making seminal climate research open access.
