Fostering Governmental Support for Open Educational Resources Internationally: Arab Region

Abstract

I will begin by describing the background to the project and list its three elements. Then Stamenka will share highlights the responses we have received from countries in this region to our survey questionnaire on OER policies and then tell you about the other Regional Policy Forums in this series. She will present this as background for the discussions we shall have later on the draft Declaration on OER that governments will be invited to support at the World OER Congress at Paris in June.
