On the basis of OCW- courses:
Idea: voluntary learning services around OCW (1)
• More and more initiatives from ‘OER to OEP’ (open educational practices), for examplehttp://mitx.mit.edu/
• Informal communities for learners around OER already exist, for example http://p2pu.org/nl/

Next step: voluntary learning services around OCW= UNESCO action line
Model we propose (start: additional to ongoinglinkages?):
• Curricula of the Southern partner is leading. • The southern partner is responsible for grading and quality
assurance. • Selected courses which are part of the regular curricula are being
provided on the basis of OCW/OER by academic teaching community (North-South).
• The Northern expert does not receive a remuneration for his/her contribution to the provision of the course.

Part III: Discussions
Discussion: potential OCW/OER for capacity building programs Nuffic
- What are the opportunities?- What is required for OCW/OER in terms of capacity
building? - What should be the scale of the project?- What are the main challenges/problems to be solved?- Are Dutch institutes ready for this approach?- Can we add voluntary learning services to linkages?
The opposite of open is closedThe opposite of connected is isolated We can share and educate as never before
