MDPI has been championing Open Access (OA) for nearly 30 years and remains committed to advancing open scientific exchange. Each year, Open Access Week highlights the importance of OA, exploring vital questions around openness and the broader academic landscape. This year’s theme asks: ‘Who Owns Our Knowledge?’ MDPI believes that knowledge should be available to everyone, for the benefit of society and the advancement of science. That’s why MDPI focuses on advancing open scientific exchange. Joi

Open access publishing is now a cornerstone of global research, with more researchers choosing OA over traditional paywalled models, and embracing new, community-driven models. As we gear up for International Open Access Week (21–27 October 2024), let's celebrate the power of accessible research in driving innovation and collaboration across research communities.
