Dear African & South African Colleagues

To demonstrate your support for Open Access, the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ)<https://doaj.org/> can be endorsed by your institution/journal/organization/department/other. Several global research funders (especially from Europe) have endorsed DOAJ as the authoritative list of Open Access journals, and many of them  have a  listing in DOAJ as a criteria for support for payment of APC´s. The same accounts for the majority of the hundreds of universities worldwide with Open Access Publication Funds.

The following from SA are members of DOAJ<https://doaj.org/members>:
·         AOSIS<http://www.openjournals.net/>
·         Cape Peninsula University of Technology<http://www.cput.ac.za/>
·         Stellenbosch University<http://library.sun.ac.za/>
Contact DOAJ by completing the online form to the bottom of the page at https://doaj.org/contact . It is only with the support of the research community that initiatives such as this can remain sustainable. Thank you for considering to support.
