Who owns our knowledge? Open Access Week 2025

The theme for Open Access Week 2025 has been announced: Who owns our knowledge?

This year’s theme asks a pointed question about the present moment and how, in a time of disruption, communities can reassert control over the knowledge they produce. It also challenges us to reflect on not only who has access to education and research but on how knowledge is created and shared, where it has come from, and whose voices are recognized and valued.

This year International Open Access Week is October 20-26th.
