Open science represents a paradigm shift in research, aiming for accessibility, inclusivi- ty, and sustainability. Articles in this special section #Open examine a wide range of projects, practices, and research approaches that embrace these principles in multiple ways. Some delve into open practices in publishing and how they challenge traditional academic structures; others explore how digital platforms have the potential to both enable and curb the progress of open science. Several focus on the more or less implicit impact of researchers in the wider community through open education, public en- gagement, and citizen science. The selected contributions not only provide insight on the challenges and opportunities of openness in media studies, but also gather a dia- mond open collection of articles and essays, with no financial burden for readers as well as authors. In this sense, this issue concretely puts into practice the ethos that it embraces, and acts as a call to action for the larger academic community to engage in collective efforts towards sustainable open scholarship practices and models. |
