The Rise of Big Publishers in Development and What is at Stake | OCSDNET

Earlier this year, I attended Publishers for Development, a conference that gathers librarians, researchers, development officers and international scientific publishers to develop common understandings around the research challenges, needs, and priorities of the Global South. The conference was hosted by INASP, an international development charity working in Latin America, the Middle East, Africa and Asia to strengthen research capacity in support of national and global development. To advance this mission, INASP has developed a myriad of research-oriented development programs aimed at bridging the knowledge gap between Global North and Global South.
