I'll be speaking online at the #FORM4Open conference on Monday 20 October, on 'Advancing Open Access Books through Community-Driven Collaboration' with my @copim colleague Kira Hopkins.
Looking forward to kicking off #OAWeek with an excellent conversation!
Emily Choynowski of Knowledge E Global, and Director of Operations at #FORM4Open, introduced PKP’s @saurabhkhanna at the “Decolonising Science” event held on January 23rd.
“... Saurabh Khanna on inherent bias of citation based journal metrics which inevitably exclude Global South researchers, and how we can address these…”
If you missed the event, there is a recording from a somewhat similar, yet still unique talk at the earlier FORM 2023 event.

The goal is to offer practical guidance on a broad array of issues relating to the implementation of Open Science policies and practices in scholarly ecosystems, from leading global experts.
