**Session Description**
This keynote panel brings together four international speakers in conversation, to explore feminist perspectives and some of the most critical issues facing the future of Open Education. With a particular emphasis on what an ethical future in open education practice and research may look like we are going to discuss practical examples of how we are negotiating our paths. We will share insights into policy development for ethical practice, using values development to build networks, using open technologies to support open educational practices, and creating ethical frameworks for learning technology. We will also talk about the Open COVID Pledge for Education and the increased importance of sharing practice and insights at this moment in time.
Chaired by [Su-Ming Khoo](https://oer19.oerconf.org/su-ming-khoo/) from NUI Galway, we are looking forward to your questions and participation as we explore Open Education and Ethical Futures at OEGlobal.
