Un élément clé de la compréhension du contexte structural, technique, culturel et de politique publique de la science accessible dans l'hémisphère sud est la reconnaissance de la pluralité et de la diversité du cadre et de la signification du terme « accessible ». Ce volume propose des textes issus de douze projets qui ensemble forment le réseau Open and Collaborative Science in Development Network (OCSDN). Il est structuré en fonction de quatre thématiques: Définir la science accessible dans le domaine du développement; Gouvernance et science accessible; Négocier la science accessible; et Accroître la science accessible à l'appui de la transformation sociale. Ce volume sert à mettre en valeur des exemples et des réflexions qui illustrent la façon dont des occasions et des défis posés par le libre accès varient d'une région à l'autre, et d'identifier les principales différences entre les acteurs, les établissements, les infrastructures et la gouvernance des ressources fondées sur le savoir, dans différents contextes. Ce volume contribuera à la littérature sur le libre accès, qui a principalement été écrite en fonction du contexte de l'hémisphère nord. La remise en question de la production asymétrique du savoir mondial est au coeur d'une meilleure compréhension du mouvement vers la science accessible et ce que celle-ci pourrait représenter pour la réflexion et la pratique du développement. Ce livre est publié en anglais. - Contextualizing Openness offers a fascinating look at Open Science and the democratization of knowledge in international development and social transformation with a focus on the Global South. This volume presents contributions from the twelve projects that form the Open and Collaborative Science in Development Network (OCSDNet) organized around four central themes: Defining Open Science in Development; Governing Open Science; Negotiating Open Science; and Expanding Open Science for Social Transformation. The collective goal is to illustrate how the opportunities and challenges associated with openness vary across regions and, further, to identify the key differences that characterize the actors, institutions, as well as the infrastructure and governance of knowledge-based resources in highly diverse settings. To understand the movement toward Open Science and its impact on the thinking and practices that drive development, we must challenge the asymmetry of global knowledge production and of access to this knowledge. Contextualizing Openness aims at stimulating further research and debate on how to collectively design a knowledge system that is open and equitable for all  This book is published in English. 3

    While the great scientists of the past recognized a need for a multidisciplinary approach, today’s schools often treat math and science as subjects separate from the rest. This not only creates a disinterest among students, but also a potential learning gap once students reach college and then graduate into the workforce.
