AfricArXiv at #osc2019

Published by Jo Havemann on

AfricArxiv was presented at the International Open Science Conference (#osc2019) in Berlin, Germany by Jo Havemann on the theme: “What role can Open Science play in enabling South-North dialogues?“

Preceding the conference was the Barcamp Open Science (#oscibar) – where we hosted a session about the importance of language diversity in Science not only in Africa, but across the world. It was concluded that we need language diversity in science as well as a common language to connect and exchange globally. A balanced use of both can be achieved by utilising digital technology.

Let us create a globally inclusive dialogue on Open Science Hardware (OSH) standards

“Hardware is a vital part of experiments process and advances in instrumentation have been central to scientific revolutions by expanding observations beyond standard human senses.” But making hardware and especially sharing hardware is neither an easy nor a recognized task in academia. In order to tackle this issue, some of us started a Research Data Alliance (RDA) interest group.
