24-30 October – Open for Climate Justice
This year’s theme seeks to encourage connection and collaboration among the climate movement and the international open community. Sharing knowledge is a human right, and tackling the climate crisis requires the rapid exchange of knowledge across geographic, economic, and disciplinary boundaries.
Welcome to International Open Access Week, 24-30 Oct, 2022, at KI! To highlight the importance of openness and collaboration, the University Library will be arranging a number of activities with different perspectives on this theme throughout the week.

In 2022 we had the opportunity to meet Tobias Alfvén, senior researcher and associate professor in Global Health at KI and a paediatrician at Sachs’ Children and Youth Hospital in Stockholm. In this video he shares his thoughts on openness and its role in research.
During Open Access Week 2022 KIB met with Patrik Magnusson, chair of the Open Science Working Group (OSWG). This is what he said.
