Open Education for a Better World (OE4BW) is an international online mentoring program,
supporting the development and implementation of open educational resources that include
and address at least one of the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals
(SDGs)<https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/>g/>. This Call follows the first two
cohorts of the OE4BW program where 49 Open Educational Resources (OER) projects were
developed by 49 participants under the supervision of 67 mentors, coming from 25 countries
from all over the globe. This included KPU’s own Christina Page (The Learning Centres) who
served as a mentor and Andrea Niosi (Marketing) who was a participant.
So far, the developers and mentors were regionally coordinated by Hub leaders in the
following three Regional Hubs:
* Africa and Europe Hub,
* Asia and South Pacific Hub,
* North and South America Hub.
In this year’s OE4BW Call, a new, topic-oriented SDG7 Hub (i.e. Ensure access to
affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all) is added.
