Hi All I found the answers (by Rory and Cable) to my question on another mailing list (OER-Discuss): Open Educational Resources (OER) are learning, teaching and research material in any format and medium that resides in the Public Domain or are under copyright that have been released under an open license that permits no-cost access, reuse, repurpose, adaptation and redistribution by others. --- "Open license refers to a license that respects the intellectual property rights of the copyright owner and provides permissions granting the public the rights to access, re-use, re-purpose, adapt, and redistribute educational materials."

I believe a version less restrictive than the one in the draft (see links below) was agreed in the end, but it would be really helpful to know further details. https://unesco.ijs.si/project/unesco-recommendation-on-open-educational-resources/<https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Funesco.ijs.si%2Fproject%2Funesco-recommendation-on-open-educational-resources%2F&data=02%7C01%7Cab8455%40coventry.ac.uk%7C9b6f167df38a4488100508d6ee5a40c3%7C4b18ab9a37654abeac7c0e0d398afd4f%7C0%7C0%7C636958468742066768&sdata=Ki3Nu2s4eoXI8pdWaUiu1zuqzV4AXLitoYnHQBcA4vI%3D&reserved=0> https://www.oercongress.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Draft-OER-Recommendation-Version-Draft-18-April-2018-text-for-online-consultation-ENG.pdf<https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.oercongress.org%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2018%2F04%2FDraft-OER-Recommendation-Version-Draft-18-April-2018-text-for-online-consultation-ENG.pdf&data=02%7C01%7Cab8455%40coventry.ac.uk%7C9b6f167df38a4488100508d6ee5a40c3%7C4b18ab9a37654abeac7c0e0d398afd4f%7C0%7C0%7C636958468742066768&sdata=UDUMpDvTpgdTCvuy1bIumXJrkQv%2FgCWNXVgmgV1KLjE%3D&reserved=0> Thanks Dr Daniel Villar-Onrubia SFHEA Principal Innovation Lead Disruptive Media Learning Lab Coventry University From: Open Education Special Interest Group <[log in to unmask]> on behalf of "Dr. Rory McGreal" <[log in to unmask]> Reply-To: Open Education Special Interest Group <[log in to unmask]> Date: Tuesday, 28 May 2019 at 21:44 To: "[log in to unmask]" <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: UNESCO OER Recommendation: good news Cable, Good to hear from you. I was at the meeting. It was a public meeting so the draft can be shared. I have sent out the new definition to Chairs as a draft. I suppose we should wait for the final doc for the whole thing. I agree that this is a major victory for OER, and you can be proud of your team's role in ensuring this. Their participation at the meeting was critical. All the best.

The UNESCO OER Recommendation was approved by UNESCO member states today, by consensus. Its final step for approval will take place at the UNESCO General Assembly in November, 2019 - though we expect that vote to be procedural.

CC, the UNESCO OER Chairs, and many other IGOs and NGOs in the meeting were able to work with UNESCO members states to significantly edit some of the unhelpful definitions and improve other text in the document. This was truly a team effort. The final text of the document will be now coordinated and translated by UNESCO and they will publish it prior to the November meeting. Date TBD.

Special thanks to everyone who was involved in this long process of drafting the document, revising and improving it, educating your UNESCO country delegates, and helping to get it across the finish line. The Slovenian delegation and the UNESCO staff, in particular, deserve our gratitude for leading this project for so many years. I will share more information as it becomes available.
