'Celebrating 10 Years of the DOAJ Ambassador Programme'
DOAJ published a blog post celebrating 10 years of its ambassador program. It states the following:[I]n 2016, we launched the DOAJ Ambassador Programme with 15 Ambassadors who were recruited to improve open access publishing in the Global South. Today, we have 14 Ambassadors, representing 9 regions and operating from 12 countries, some of whom are also DOAJ team members, and some who have been Ambassadors since the very beginning! … The Ambassador programme has been shaped and formed by Ambassadors and community needs since its very inception—it has grown organically but always stayed true to its mission: to improve open access publishing in the developing world. Much of the work of Ambassadors has taken the shape of training sessions, workshops and local outreach to teach local communities about good practice in open access publishing. It also helped journals understand DOAJ criteria, improve publishing quality and become more visible. For more information, read the blog post.
