Kudos to the #OpenScience Working Group at #ConcordiaUniversity for its strong recommendations, including a #RightsRetention #OpenAccess policy.

At p. 5: "Concordia should…further the development of copyright support through an institutionally supported
rights retention strategy, which can support green open access and diversify how
research can be made openly accessible."

"At a time when institutions like #ConcordiaUniversity are now attempting to repair the harms they caused to Black communities and organizations involved in the 1969 Sir George occupation, when will the #Canadian state acknowledge its role in manufacturing anti-Black violence during the occupation, and the continuum of harm and racial terror committed by the #RCMP that followed?" https://canadiandimension.com/articles/view/state-files-confirm-targeted-rcmp-violence-aftermath-1969-sir-george-protest

While many universities and employers are working on providing equal opportunities for everyone, Concordia University has shown a lack of support and commitment to keep our daycare on its campus. This is an essential service and a second home & family for our kids.
