We invite you to the event Open Access Week — Who Owns Our Knowledge? This year's Open Access Week takes place from October 20-26. The theme raises questions about the present and how, in times of transition, communities can regain control over the knowledge they produce. It also encourages reflection not only on who has access to education and research, but also on how knowledge is created and shared, where it comes from, and whose voices are recognised and valued.
The event is co-organised by the largest Szczecin universities - University of Szczecin, West Pomeranian University of Technology, PUM, and MUS.
Discover how open access supports science and collaboration!
We especially invite you to the open lecture and workshop in the Main Building of the Maritime University of Szczecin (Senate Hall, 2nd floor):
