Dear Aurelia,
Thank you very much for sharing this information which is very valuable in particular for those working in the High Education Sector in Africa. It is my trust that this will assist those who are on the drawing board to figure out how best can this assist them to foster the power of sharing.
Paul.

Dear Brian, Florence and CC Africa colleagues,

Here are some resources available from CC HQ and the Open Courseware Consortium on using CC licenses in universities.  They may be useful to you and to other teams working with higher education.

OCWC toolkit: http://www.ocwconsortium.org/en/community/toolkit

Examples of implemented policies in institutions and projects:
* CC's OER policy registry breaks down policies implemented around the world by type, it includes institutional policies: http://wiki.creativecommons.org/OER_Policy_Registry
* http://wiki.creativecommons.org/OER_Case_Studies
* US specific: http://wiki.creativecommons.org/OER_Case_Studies/United_States


Best,
Aurelia

Dear Brain and colleagues,

This is not a bad idea for universities at all but all staff need to
first get on board and have an institutional IP policy in place as well.
