Hi all,
I'm on the executive council at Force11 (http://force11.org/). This is an organisation interested in the future of scientific publishing, and especially questions like Open Access business models and executable/Open Data.
A question that has come up recently there involves what we might broadly call incubator initiatives: i.e. initiatives that involve sharing best practice in, support for the development of, or other community building activities for scientific and scholarly publishing.
I know of a number of such initiatives in the Humanities and Social Sciences (e.g. Erudit, revues.org, some of the work at the MLA), but all of them are located in High Income Economies and they tend to operate with that context in mind. I've recently seen a number of lectures talking about differences in how Science is published in Mid and Low regions (particularly at Force11's great "Beyond the PDF 2" conference, recently held in Amsterdam).
Does anybody know of similar initiatives focused specifically on publication and dissemination issues in Mid and Low Income regions? Or focussing on geography rather than income, specifically in Africa, Latin America, Caribbean, China? I'm as interested in Scientific publishing and humanities, and within the Humanities both DH and outside that into more traditional fields.
I should say I'm speaking solely for myself here: our discussion at Force11 got me thinking.
I appreciate any tips people might be able to supply.
