EIFL-OA Programme Manager Iryna Kuchma has been invited to speak at OpenCon 2014 - the student and early career researcher conference on Open Access, Open Education, and Open Data that will be held on November 15-17, at the American University Washington College of Law and the US Capitol in Washington, DC.

OpenCon 2014 will bring together students and early career researchers from across the world to learn about the issues, develop critical skills, and return home ready to catalyze action toward a more open system for sharing the world’s information — from scholarly and scientific research, to educational materials, to digital data.  More than 1,700 individuals from over 120 countries submitted an application to attend OpenCon during the three-week application period. The conference is organized by SPARC and the Right to Research Coalition and hosted by the Creative Commons USA (CC USA).
