Greetings Open Education Friends: I’d like to introduce Mikhail Volchak. He is a researcher at Essex University (UK) and is a member of Creative Commons Belarus. Mikhail is working on his masters dissertation re: the right to education in the Global South and how traditional copyright is inhibiting access. He is trying to connect with people working on similar topics. Mikhail asked that I forward this note: --------------- I make research about right to education in the global South. The main points it will reveal: (1) what barriers are created by copyright on access to learning material; (2) what tools from international Human Right law can be used for protecting the access and (3) what are pluses and minuses of existing solutions. I would like to communicate with researchers, activists, teachers, librarians from or who works with the issue in developing countries. ---------------- I also suggested, to Mikhail, that he might join: http://go-gn.net <http://go-gn.net/> ... and connect with the researchers at: http://roer.cemca.org.in/ Thank you for connecting with Mikhail at: [log in to unmask] Warmest regards, Cable -- Cable Green, PhD Director of Open Education Creative Commons @cgreen <http://twitter.com/cgreen> *retain, reuse, revise, remix, redistribute* *Get Creative Commons Updates http://bit.ly/commonsnews <http://bit.ly/commonsnews>*
