Hi Friends,

Kindly note the below invitation to join the Creative Commons Open Education Platform.

In my humble opinion, it is very important to have a Global outlook in this Platform as Education is a very relevant and high priority issue in many of the communities you work in.

Please feel free to share with others in and around your chapters.

Kind Regards,

Simeon Oriko

Greetings CC Affiliates:

In early 2017, the Creative Commons Global Network (CCGN) completed a consultation process of renewing and reorganizing itself to support a strong and growing global movement. The year-long process resulted in the CCGN Global Network Strategy. Part of the new strategy is to establish defined areas of focus, or “platforms,” which will drive CC’s global activities. Platforms are how we organize areas of work for the CC community, where individuals and institutions organize and coordinate themselves across the CC Global Network.

In the spirit of openness and to effectively strategize, these platforms are open to all interested parties working in the platform area and adjacent spaces. That’s why Creative Commons invites you to join the CC Global Network Open Education Platform!


WHY join?

  • Stay connected to global actions in open education resources, practice, and policy.

  • Identify, plan and coordinate multi-national open education, practices and policy projects to collaboratively solve education challenges with an amazing group of open education leaders from around the world.

  • Secure funding (from Creative Commons and other funding sources) for the open education projects we collectively select.

  • Contribute to global perspectives on open education to strengthen advocacy worldwide.

  • Connect your country / region to global open education initiatives.

  • Be on the forefront in implementing Creative Commons' global network strategy.

  • Meet annually, in-person, at the Creative Commons Summit with members of the CC Open Education Platform to celebrate successes, share best practices, and plan for the next year.

  • Explore, practice, and share innovative methods for inclusive and open engagement with educators, learners and governments around the world..


WHO should join?

  • Open education advocates working in the areas of open educational resources, open educational practices, and/or open education policy.


WHAT are we working on right now?

  • Reaching the right people (you!) to build a strong open education platform.

  • Developing decision making and engagement structures.

  • Defining the goals and projects the CC Open Education Platform will pursue.
