Sinossi

An important part of identifying the structural,technical, policy and cultural contexts for Open Sciencein the Global South is recognizing the plurality anddiversity in the framing and meanings of “openness.”


This volume brings together contributions from thetwelve projects that form the Open and CollaborativeScience in Development Network (OCSDN), andis organized along four themes: Defining Open Sciencein Development, Governing Open Science, NegotiatingOpen Science, and Expanding Open Science for SocialTransformation.

The collective goal of this volume is to identifyexamples and reflections that illustrate howopportunities and challenges posed by openness varyacross regions, and to identify key differences betweenactors, institutions, infrastructure and governanceof knowledgebased resources in diverse settings.The volume will contribute to and expand upon theliterature on “openness,” which has largely been writtenfrom the standpoint of the Global North.

Challenging the asymmetry of global knowledgeproduction and access is central to understandingthe growing movement towards Open Scienceand what it may mean for development thinkingand practices. The intent is to further stimulate researchand debates on how best to collectively design aknowledge system that is open and equitable for all.
Un élément clé de la compréhension du contextestructural, technique, culturel et de politique publiquede la science accessible dans l’hémisphère sud est lareconnaissance de la pluralité et de la diversité du cadreet de la signification du terme « accessible ».

Ce volume propose des textes issus de douze projetsqui ensemble forment le réseau Open and CollaborativeScience in Development Network (OCSDN). Il eststructuré en fonction de quatre thématiques : Définir lascience accessible dans le domaine du développement ;Gouvernance et science accessible ; Négocier la scienceaccessible ; et Accroître la science accessible à l’appui dela transformation sociale.

Ce volume sert à mettre en valeur des exemples et desréflexions qui illustrent la façon dont des occasions etdes défis posés par le libre accès varient d’une région àl’autre, et d’identifier les principales différences entre lesacteurs, les établissements, les infrastructures et lagouvernance des ressources fondées sur le savoir, dansdifférents contextes. Ce volume contribuera à lalittérature sur le libre accès, qui a principalement étéécrite en fonction du contexte de l’hémisphère nord.

La remise en question de la production asymétrique dusavoir mondial est au coeur d’une meilleurecompréhension du mouvement vers la scienceaccessible et ce que celle-ci pourrait représenter pourla réflexion et la pratique du développement.
