Reflecting on #OpenFest25, I'm grateful to the presenters (Almarzouq, Bowie, Sanders) who reminded us that openness is a social practice > we must not lose sight of this. E.g. open practices per se cannot dismantle the humanities' centrality in the ideological scaffolding of apartheid and genocide 👇

In our final online panel, a great paper from Batool Almarzouq, who shows how - if you follow the sources back - the same extractivist dynamics that transfer wealth from the global south to the global north in neocolonial projects play out in the open science funding landscape #OpenFest25

This was great from @batoolmm.bsky.social - not often you see discussion of open science explicitly referencing universities' harmful investment in fossil fuels and weapons #openfest25

Are Science and Activism Contradictory?
Some say scientists should stay out of politics. Power shapes science — so do we
Just took a 30-min break yesterday & put together some thoughts from those quick chats at #OpenScience conferences lately. Ended up with a short, 3-minute read on whether science and activism are actually at odds, or if maybe it only feels that way sometimes!
