How do we connect the Opens: #OpenEducation and #OpenScience?

Our Connecting the Opens Leadership Series, based on interviews conducted by SPARC Europe, explores how university leaders are aligning Open Science and Open Education to strengthen institutional resilience, relevance, and public impact.

This is a wonderful and inspiring series. The first paper, A new vision for the modern university, aligns closely with my book due out May 4th Distributing knowledge: openness, equity and higher education transformation. Great to see that your series offers clear action steps. Let’s hope that the leaders you identify in your interviews will be able to take action and actually lead a transformation.

Thanks a lot @Dickh. That’s our hope as well, together with many other stakeholders who work at different levels, all of them important. Curious to read your work once published!
