Session Notes Document
On the path to making Open the default for research and education, we've had big wins across the globe. In this panel, we'll highlight and reflect on those wins. From the world’s strongest Open Access policy to unlocking 100 million facts from the research literature to including open educational resources in open government initiatives, we'll learn how some of the biggest wins have been made, what open is enabling, and what we still need to do.
