"This survey aims to gather perspectives on achieving truly equitable global open access as outlined in the OASPA ‘Next 50%’ project primer available via the Zenodo repository: http://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15463314.
Your responses will inform discussions about reassessing what "open" truly means and on creating a more inclusive knowledge ecosystem. This will support a more holistic transition to open access."

The recording of the OASPA deep-dive into 'Subscribe to Open' aka S2O is now up https://www.oaspa.org/events/wayfinders-4-a-deep-dive-into-s2o-subscribe-to-open/
Really worth checking this out if you're not familiar with S2O.
The key thing to remember with S2O is that authors can make their work open access with no author-side fees under this model - it doesn't matter what your affiliation is. Enabling truly equitable open access. Diamond OA is best, but S2O is a pragmatic middle-ground and worthy of supporting too...

For a deeper, more detailed (more fun?) conversation catch me at #OASPA2024 in Lisbon. https://pkp.sfu.ca/2024/03/14/pkp-not-for-sale/
