SUMMARY:Open Access: are Southern voices being stifled?
DESCRIPTION:Researchers from developing countries struggle to get thei
 r voices heard in a global publishing environment which favours Northe
 rn voices. At the same time, information users in developing countries
  face exorbitant fees when they try to access research which is locked
  away in prestigious and expensive northern journals.\n \nOpen Access
  is concerned with the right of the public to access to publically fun
 ded research. It is about ensuring that research literature is made av
 ailable online, free of charge, and free of most copyright and licensi
 ng restrictions. How can this vision of Open Access become a reality f
 or researchers and research users in developing countries? And as Open
  Access debates move beyond the journal, what does Open Access offer t
 o research communication for development?\n \nThis webinar will featu
 re Eve Gray & Rebecca Kahn, both seasoned Open Access campaigners & 
 researchers, along with James Georgalakis, Head of Communications at t
 he Institute of Development Studies. \nFollow the webinar live on the
  IDS website & submit questions via Twitter using the hashtag:  #Open
 _AccessIDS\n\nFor more information visit http://legacy.openaccessweek.
