Call for video-posters

As part of the activities of the IV Redalyc Journal Editors International Congress and within the framework of the Global Summit on Diamond Open Access / Cumbre Global sobre Acceso Abierto Diamante, editors of OA Diamond scientific journals, researchers and the academic community in general are invited to participate in the presentation of their contributions in the field of non-commercial Open Access through scientific video-posters.

Redalyc, in its twenty years, aimed to provide non-commercial scientific journals with an infrastructure to improve quality, increase visibility, adapt to the digital age, and recognize the value of editorial work.

Aware of the challenges of scientific communication and the emergence of Open Access business models that do not favor equity and inclusion, it is vital to recognize the role of scientific journals editors and the contribution of editorial activity in the sustaining of a non-profit academic publishing ecosystem. Redalyc has sought to build a vibrant community of institutions and professionals who are on the front line of the battle: The editors of the diamond scientific journals, as well as the institutions that support them.

In 2023, Redalyc organizes the IV Redalyc Journal Editors International Congress, with the aim of continuing the dialogue with the main actors that sustain and consolidate the non-commercial publishing.
