Iryna Kuchma and Milica Ševkušić from the EIFL Open Access Programme will participate in the public launch of the EU-funded project, ALMASI: Aligning and Mutualizing Nonprofit Open Access Publishing Services Internationally, on 14 January, and the public launch of the European Diamond Capacity Hub, on 15 January. The events will be hosted by the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT), and will take place at the Museo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología (MUNCYT). 

EIFL is a partner in the three-year ALMASI project which involves 15 partners and  seeks to develop a nonprofit, high-quality and sustainable scholarly communication ecosystem spanning three regions: Africa, Europe and Latin America.

The European Diamond Capacity Hub (EDCH) aims to strengthen the Diamond Open Access community in Europe by supporting European institutional, national and disciplinary capacity centres and Diamond publishers and service providers.
