Vive la révolution! Taking our knowledge back

Open Access Week 2025 - External event

 

What does it mean to “own” your research in 2025? How can academic authors make informed choices about where and how people (and/or machines!) can access and build on their work? This session explores how the scholarly community can wrest control back from the oligopoly and maintain agency over their own work, ensuring their research has the widest and most meaningful impact. Vive la révolution!

  • Professor Kathy Bowrey, Faculty of Law, University of New South Wales, Australia.
  • Kathleen Shearer, Executive Director, Confederation of Open Access Repositories (COAR), Canada.
  • Ngapera Riley, CEO, Figure.NZ, Aotearoa New Zealand.

  • Tove Lemberget, Team Leader, Repository and Metadata Services, James Cook University, Australia
