It’s a platform for the next generation to learn about Open Access, Open Education, and Open Data, develop critical skills, and catalyze action toward a more open system for sharing the world’s information—from scholarly and scientific research, to educational materials, to digital research data. OpenCon 2016 will be held in Washington, DC on November 12-14, with satellite events hosted around the world.<br><br></span></span></div></div><div data-offset-key="a6jjr-0-0" data-editor="bgf82" data-block="true" class="_2cuy _3dgx"><div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="a6jjr-0-0"><span data-offset-key="a6jjr-0-0"><span data-text="true">
In India, during the Wiki Conference at Chandigarh my friends from Open Access India, had organised OpenCon 2016 Chandigarh. A similar satellite event would be happening at Ranchi in the month of November. The date is tentatively fixed as 12th Second Saturday and the probable venue would be Ranchi University.<br><br></span></span></div></div><div data-offset-key="f3pqu-0-0" data-editor="bgf82" data-block="true" class="_2cuy _3dgx"><div class="_1mf _1mj" data-offset-key="f3pqu-0-0"><span data-offset-key="f3pqu-0-0"><span data-text="true">
