Training, Toolkits & Community Engagement – CRAFT-OA

"Training and community engagement go hand in hand. The CRAFT-OA consortium represents a small sample of the European Diamond OA community. We engaged our Diamond OA colleagues across Europe and beyond to learn about the technical challenges facing the broader community and to provide resources to overcome them. To do this, over the project’s 3-year duration, we created and participated in training sessions and other events (both our own and externally organised). Together with the DIAMAS project, CRAFT-OA also helped establish the European Diamond Capacity Hub (EDCH) Registry & Forum, including the development of frameworks for onboarding, community engagement, moderation, messaging, and narratives (see this report).

These activities foster the development and long-term growth of the European Diamond OA community."
