eLife Global South Committee for Open Science: Applications open for candidates to join for a two-year term | Inside eLife | eLife

"The Global South Committee for Open Science brings together researchers from countries and regions in the Global South with shared socio-economic and political challenges that often result in limited representation and influence on critical issues in the wider academic publishing landscape. This group plays a crucial role in guiding eLife's efforts to enhance participation in science communication and innovation. It serves as a cornerstone in improving opportunities for Global South researchers and expanding eLife's outreach and support in these regions.

eLife established the Global South Committee for Open Science in July 2023 to advise and collaborate with us in pursuing more inclusive, equitable and diverse scientific communication and innovation. The group currently has eight members from some of the regions that make up the geography for the purpose of the project. We are now seeking to recruit a further five members to bring the group to its revised capacity of 13, matching our other community advisory groups."
