  • The Dakar Declaration on Open Science in Africa

    The Dakar Declaration on Open Science in Africa was prepared for and signed by the participants to the Sci-GaIA Workshop on “Promoting Open Science in Africa”, to the 2nd TANDEM Workshop and to the WACREN Conference 2016, all held in Dakar in March 2016. After those events, the Sci-GaIA Consortium has decided to put the declaration on the website of the project to allow everybody sharing it to sign it online. A signatory of this petition agrees to promote and support Open Science across Africa. This international effort will help to raise the profile of African research across the world and assist African Universities and research organisations to adopt Open Science approaches and technologies. The declaration is released under the Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike 4.0 International License and it can be cited as [doi:10.15169/sci-gaia:1457961379.87].
