<div>Key points:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>We conclude that it is possible to develop and assess open access initiatives from the perspectives of whether they are likely to help or harm knowledge equity or knowledge justice (the ability of all qualified to participate in the global scholarly conversation)</li><li>We recommend that OA initiatives and policies undertake a knowledge equity analysis<br>
</li></ul>
