[Irtalk] You want your Open Access initiative to succeed? Partner with research funders | CIARD

[Hilton Gibson]

During the webinar, Bill mentioned two points that gave me food for
thought.
*These are that simple policies to encourage Open Access (OA) do not seem
to work (unless where they are mandated with sanctions); and that research
funders are key to encouraging OA. ​*

Funders want to know that the research they fund has an impact... what
better way than to mandate open access for all funder funded research. So
who funds research at your institute?​ Talk to them about Open Access!
