What is the Open Education Platform?
The Creative Commons Open Education Platform is a space for open education advocates and practitioners to identify, plan and coordinate multi-national open education content, practices and policy activities to foster better sharing of knowledge.
This platform is open to all interested people working in open education. We work in a transparent, professional, ethical and public manner on the following goals:
1. Build and Sustain Community
2. Increase Educational Access and Equity
3. Use Policy to Open Education Opportunities for All
