Great initiative Stefanie! Because we also need researchers to step up & out of the shadows! In the Netherlands universities, libraries and NWO have coordinated actions and efforts to support DOA. This might be interesting: www.openaccess.nl/nl/diamond-o... and www.openscience.nl/en/cases/tow...

IMO we’re already progressing with this, for instance through the evidence-based cv (more outputs are recognized and therefore are essentially rewarded when a grant is rewarded. NWO actively supports alternatives that develop and create non-apc solutions. On national and international level 1/2
