Hello all, 

Please find attached a call for chapters for a collection on open educational resources and localization in higher education co-edited by Prof. Lynne Bowker whom I’ve had the pleasure of helping with her own OER projects. The collection will be published in 2026 by the Commonwealth of Learning.  

Among the suggested topics: 

-Translation and adaptation practices for OER 
-Cultural relevance and inclusion in localised OER 
-Decolonising the curriculum through localised OER 
-Technological tools supporting localisation of OER 
-Policy perspectives on OER localisation in higher education 

The call is open until August 15, 2025.  

Full details are available in the attachment.  

For questions or to submit a proposal, please contact co-editor Jako Olivier at jolivier@col.org 

Thanks!
