Hadithi Launch: Open Access & Higher Education in Kenya


Hadithi and Strathmore Law School's Centre for Intellectual Property and Information Technology Law (CIPIT) invite you for the official launch of Hadithi on Thursday, January 24th 2013 at the Strathmore Business School Auditorium.

About Hadithi 
Hadithi is an online repository of open access (OA) research for university students, academics and researchers. We build partnerships with OA publishers across the world, obtain their content and then host it on our platform.

While several research and educational institutions have implemented OA policies and created institutional repositories, there still isn't any general repository that curates, collects content and maintains it on one platform. We intend to fill that gap.

Panel 
Dr. Ndemo Bitange - PS Ministry of Information & Communication
Mr. Joe Mucheru - Google
Mr. Alex Gakuru - Creative Commons
Prof. Meoli Kashorda - KENET

Moderated by Mark Kaigwa
