With seven academic journals in the field of social sciences and humanities the open access platform Openjournals.nl was launched today. This new, easy-to-access platform gives journals published in the Netherlands the opportunity to publish open access. The development of this platform was made possible by a grant from NWO.

On the 31th of January NWO and ZonMw organised a consultation meeting as part of the public feedback on the implementation of Plan S. The meeting was very well attended with over 250 people representing all segments of the Dutch research community.
