Description

Open access is an important tool in the fight against misinformation. Transparency in open access publishing can strengthen public trust and make information more accessible. When more scientific research is available to the public, the easier it is to combat misinformation and more critical thinking skills can be encouraged. This greater access can also lead to more knowledge production, as more scholars build upon the work already done, sharing their work with the world.
