Contribute Events and Open Assets for OE Week

Open Education Week is made of what the global community contributes. Start sharing here.

Every year since 2012 institutions, organizations, and individuals around the world spend one week in March sharing, discussing, and celebrating their contributions to the ideals of Open Education.

All open educators, students, policymakers, technologists, and enthusiasts, wherever you may be, are invited to host events and share resources for OE Week 2025.

Events

Events are activities that take place ideally during the March 3-7 time frame of Open Education Week 2025 but we will list all relevant events planned in 2025 through the end of March. These can be live in-person local, online, or asynchronous events, as a series or single events.

Assets

Open Assets are resources that include OERs, textbooks, libraries of resources, or education modules – all with educational purpose and value that are openly licensed and accessible. This year we are asking the community to add to the global collection by sharing to specific existing repositories.
