The global publishing landscape has been evolving in recent years, with a notable shift towards openness and accessibility. This has been driving scientists to more openly sharing their discoveries, and undeniably accelerating towards an Open Access world. The Open Access movement has been grounded in key shared declarations and supported by several policy changes at institutional, national, and international levels. However, its influence expands beyond policy. The Open Access movement plays a vital role in addressing the needs of researchers and society by ensuring that knowledge is accessible to all.

In this publishing workshop, we will provide an overview of the Open Science movement and its origins; we will discuss the motivations behind the Open Access movement, highlighting its benefits, both to scientists and the community. Additionally, we will learn about the differences between green, bronze, gold and diamond Open Access, and discuss how they differ in terms of accessibility, costs, and publishing requirements. Finally, we will present the publisher's (Wiley) approach to Open Access, including an overview of our waiver program and our transformational agreements, which aim to make Open Access publishing more accessible.
