Poster by EIFL, African Journals Online (AJOL) and the West and Central African Research and Education Network (WACREN) detailing progress in implementation of the ‘Collaboration for sustainable open access publishing in Africa’ project (Nov 2023 - Oct 2026). Through QR codes, the poster also shares mid-term results and outputs of the project. 

The project is implemented by EIFL, AJOL and WACREN with funding from Wellcome. It aims to develop and deliver a participatory funding approach to strengthen the quality and sustainability of African Diamond open access publishing while maintaining its diversity. Diamond open access means that authors and readers pay no fees to publish or read articles. 

The poster was presented during the final conference of the EU-funded DIAMAS (Developing Institutional Open Access Publishing Models to Advance Scholarly Communication) project which took place in Brussels, Belgium, in June 2025.
