EIFL, AJOL (African Journals Online) and WACREN (the West and Central African Research and Education Network) invite African organizations – legal entities that own open access (OA) journals that do not charge any fees for either authors or readers (often referred to as Diamond OA journals), and where editorial teams are based – to participate in this call for proposals. This is the second of two open calls for proposals that aim to enhance the quality and strengthen the sustainability of Diamond OA publishing in Africa, while maintaining its diversity. See 17 projects that received financial support through the first call last year. The calls are part of a three-year project launched in November 2023 with funding from Wellcome.
