An introduction from me:

I’m an Australian librarian, working with #OER, #OpenTexts and #OpenPedgogy. I’m passionate about social justice and inclusion.

I hope to have conversations about #OpenEducation, and #inclusion with others.

Anyone come across resources on funding independent OER (open educational resource) creators?

Like ways to fund independent researchers creating free educational resources

Any organisation, grant, publishing house/press that funds design professors, educators, artists, independent researchers to make free educational resources #oer for the public?

Long version:
I work for a peak body for leaders of #AcademicLibraries, where I look after strategy and analytics. I'm a former #LIS academic, #SocialScientist, #OnlineLearning specialist and librarian, and I'm still kinda working out who I am now I'm not an academic anymore (but very much enjoying the ride). I'm a #QualitativeResearch type who is learning to love quantitative data. My professional interests are in the hashtag list up there ^^^
