Open Access

Why Should I Publish Open Access?

  • Because your funder may require it:
    Sherpa (allows researchers to see funders' requirements for open-access publication)
  • For greater societal impact: your research will be accessible to all interested parties, including people in the Global South or NGO professionals who often cannot access paywalled research.
  • Retain your rights: why should you give up your copyright to a publisher?
