Open Educational Resources University
This initiative comes at the right moment, while higher education was becoming increasingly inaccessible to many economically disadvantaged students. Accessible education is, indeed, one of the critical human rights according to UNESCO. For more information about OERU and the philanthropy that underpin it, see the summary of the meeting on OERU/OER for Assessment and Credit for Students. Another OERu meeting is scheduled in November 2011. Everyone is invited to virtually participate in this landmark event toward free tertiary education.
