Abstract
Open access publishing is rapidly growing in popularity, while materials for re-use in education and training are increasingly being sourced free from the web. This workshop will equip participants to use open licensing with confidence when they make knowledge available on the Internet, and to understand the key issues for reusing open licensed materials published by others. It will provide a simple "how-to" guide to the Creative Commons licensing framework, the international standard which sets out allowable uses of knowledge published free on the web. Participants will learn how to publish using open licences, what to consider when re-using open licensed materials, and how to advise other knowledge producers.This workshop was hosted by the Mobilising Knowledge for Development Programme (The Institute of Development Studies (IDS) UK).
