It's official!

Quartz Open Access is building a fair and sustainable Open Access model with rewards for authors, reviewers and scholar-led journals.

We are so excited to be one of the 2020 Flagship grantees of @GrantForTheWeb!

It’s been tough to keep this under wraps but
we can finally announce our 2020 Flagship grantees! We’re amazed by the scale & ambition of these #webmonetization ideas and can’t wait to see what our grantees accomplish & learn. #gfw #grantfortheweb https://t.co/lUoNxTyTl3

A conference serves as a nexus for information and a catalyst for progress. We’re grateful that we get to work in DeSci, and that we have your support in doing it. Till next year!

A 2021 paper, co-authored by @BKCHarvard Faculty Associate @samerP2P, that looked at voting participation for the main platforms used to facilitate the creation of DAOs was recently featured in @Forbes.

👀Psst, Bitcoin. Don’t think we’ve forgotten about your wasteful energy usage following Ethereum’s merge. We’re still waiting on you to #ChangeTheCode!

@posth @paulkhls @DeSciBerlin Interesting to not see @bloxberg_info mentioned as a community. Did you get the feeling that any of the projects on this poster have the potential for long-term sustainability?

@exittocommunity @QuartzOA is an interesting new project, exploring the #PlatformCoop model as a way to support and sustain community ownership and control of our increasingly enclosed and co-opted scholarly publishing process.

"Installing new technologies, making infrastructural changes, and adopting new policies and practices are vital to increase the value and impact of our Society journals and to ensure our organizational sustainability."

Indeed, we should work to make that a reality! #OA

[Quartz Open Access @QuartzOA]

A worrying observation on @scholarlykitchn: independent journals are "abandoning their independence" to join bigger publishers. https://t.co/qp0WaXh4vk

So, let's reverse this trend and bring new sources of support to independent publishers!

APA is committed to open access academic publishing through the publication of our Diamond Open Journal Publicación Electrónica de la APA. With this agreement, PE-APA will serve as a pilot program for the development of the unique technologies of Quartz OA.

The co-optation and enclosure of #PublicResearch and knowledge creation for private gain is a huge barrier to #SystemsChange for public benefit

@QuartzOA proposes #PlatformCoops as a potential solution (highly compatible w/agroecological values and goals)
