Are Community-Driven Initiatives the Key for Better Publishing?

Scholarly publishing is facing significant challenges related to inequality, accessibility, and affordability.

This panel will critically discuss the advantages and challenges of publishing models, the evolving landscape of academic dissemination, and the potential of community-driven approaches to foster a more inclusive and equitable system. The speakers include a former Wiley editor who resigned in protest over industry practices and three distinguished researchers from the University of Zurich.

Join us to explore innovative pathways for transforming scholarly publishing.
