Launched in 2012, <a href=\"https:\/\/2.zoppoz.workers.dev:443\/http\/www.oeglobal.org\">Open Education Global<\/a> hosts Open Education Week as a collaborative, community-built open forum that allows open education practitioners to advocate for, share with, and learn about the latest achievements in open education worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OEWeek annually raises awareness about open education and highlights innovative practices and successes worldwide. OEWeek provides a platform for practitioners, educators, and students to build a greater understanding of open educational practices and to be inspired by the wonderful work being developed by the community around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Open Education Week raises awareness and highlights innovative open education successes worldwide.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"in-person-events\">A Compendium of Event Ideas<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the years, open education-focused departments and communities have held many different kinds of events at schools, colleges, universities, libraries, and tech hubs. These have ranged from creating awareness and visibility (introduction, training sessions) to driving the open education process at their organization further (presentations, panel discussions) or to using the week to further a specific cause within open education, like activism around open textbooks or translating or adapting existing OERs into local languages.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
