The aim of the exchange was for Knowledge Exchange partners to discuss and learn from each other.

Discussed were recent developments regarding Open Access in the negotiations on licenses for research journals: the increased relevance of the Open Access models for Higher Education and Research and the growing interest of government policies in Open Access aspects.
