Open & Affordable Community Forum

In 2019, VIVA began hosting an annual Open & Affordable Community Forum, covering existing and emerging issues in the field of open education, open pedagogy, and open educational resources.  

Previous to this, in 2017 and 2018, VIVA held an annual Open Textbook Network (OTN) Best Practices Forum.
