SUMMARY:AfLIA Open Education Week Virtual Summit
DESCRIPTION:The African Library and Information Associations and Institutions (AfLIA)\, in collaboration with OER Africa\, is pleased to announce the 2026 AfLIA Open Education Week Virtual Summit\, scheduled for 3–4 March 2026. The virtual summit will convene librarians\, educators\, researchers\, policymakers\, and other stakeholders to explore how Open Education can expand access\, improve equity\, and transform learning outcomes across Africa. \nTheme: Open Education\, Open Possibilities\nOpen Education is reshaping the global learning landscape by expanding access to open educational resources and practices. It creates new pathways for inclusive\, quality\, and equitable education. This is particularly important for Africa\, which has the world’s youngest population\, with over 60 percent under the age of 25 and a median age of 19. Many young people and adult learners still face significant barriers to education due to inadequate resources and persistent equity gaps. Open Education presents an opportunity to address these challenges and to support Africa’s transformation into a global knowledge and innovation powerhouse. \nAfLIA strongly believes that African libraries have critical roles to play in bridging digital and resource gaps. Library professionals possess expertise in technology\, copyright\, and licensing\, positioning them as key partners in advancing Open Education. The 2026 virtual summit seeks to bring together stakeholders to share research\, case studies\, emerging models\, and visionary ideas that demonstrate how Open Education can enable transformative\, inclusive\, and equitable education across the continent. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:What Can I Share—and Where? Digital Literacy\, Open Licenses\, and Faculty Publishing Pathways
DESCRIPTION:Faculty create a wide range of digital materials—articles\, syllabi\, datasets\, lecture media\, public scholarship\, and creative work—but questions about copyright\, licensing\, and “where this work belongs” often create barriers to sharing.  \nThis Open Education Week workshop at DePauw University introduces digital literacy concepts through the lens of open licenses and publishing pathways. Participants will explore how Creative Commons licenses work\, how to decide what level of openness is appropriate for different kinds of work\, and where faculty can publish or share materials—from journals and institutional repositories to open platforms and community-aligned publishing models. Designed for a liberal arts context\, the session emphasizes faculty agency\, ethical knowledge sharing\, and practical decision-making that supports teaching\, scholarship\, and public impact.
