SUMMARY:Stronger Together: The Network of Open Organizations
DESCRIPTION:The Network of Open Organizations is a global alliance of diverse institutions and leaders committed to expanding open education and access to knowledge worldwide. Launched in 2019 and coordinated by Open Education Global\, the Network brings together educational institutions\, NGOs\, inter-governmental bodies\, and other open advocates to collaborate on shared goals\, including supporting the implementation of the UNESCO Recommendation on Open Educational Resources (OER) and advancing broader open education initiatives worldwide. By fostering ongoing dialogue\, mutual support\, and coordinated action\, the Network helps amplify collective efforts\, share best practices\, and align global\, regional\, and local strategies for openness in education and beyond. \nAt its core\, the Network serves as a learning and collaboration hub—a space where members exchange insights\, and also seek to co-develop initiatives\, and engage with complex challenges that no single organisation could address alone. \nThe Network of Open Organizations meets online on the first Tuesday of each month. Join us for the session during Open Education Week on Tuesday\, 3 March from 5:30 pm until 6:30 Paris time to engage with selected representatives of the Network of Open Organizations members\, learn about the network activities and future intentions and information on how to join.

SUMMARY:Open Education Solutions for Complex Times
DESCRIPTION:Join the University of Regina for this special Open Education Week presentation\, “Open Education Solutions for Complex Times” with Anne-Marie Scott\, Vice President of the Commonwealth of Learning (COL) in Vancouver\, BC. \nAbstract: Post-secondary institutions across Canada are facing a complex and uncertain future as they rapidly adjust to economic scarcity\, and it is clear that business-as-usual operating models will not support us to meet the challenges ahead. Compounding this is a tendency towards historical amnesia and constant reinvention; often the answers we need are already out there waiting to be discovered. The Commonwealth of Learning has a long history of working in contexts where complexity and uncertainty are the norm and has successfully used open education as an effective innovation toolkit. Drawing on examples\, this talk will outline the ways in which various elements of the open education ecosystem could be used to meet some of these big challenges in Canada head-on\, and (I hope) provide some inspiration to keep us moving forward. \nPresenter bio: Anne-Marie Scott is the Vice President of the Commonwealth of Learning (COL) in Vancouver\, Canada where she supports COL’s mission and work in open learning for sustainable development across fifty-six countries. She is an internationally recognized expert in digital\, online\, and open education\, with leadership experience across higher education and the non-profit sector. She previously served as Deputy Provost of Athabasca University in Canada\, and before that spent nearly two decades at the University of Edinburgh in the UK. She serves on the Board of the Open Source Initiative and continues to teach in the Masters in Learning and Technology at Royal Roads University in Canada.
