AEGIS-OA (Activate European Guidance and Incentives for Sustainable Open Access publishing), an EU-funded project under the Horizon Europe research and innovation programme, aiming to establish a transparent, sustainable, and high-quality open access scholarly publishing ecosystem in Europe by leveraging and expanding the services of the European Diamond Capacity Hub (EDCH). It focuses on integrating open access books alongside journals, upskilling publishing professionals through training programs, and coordinating a network of National Capacity Centres to align national efforts and initiatives across disciplines and borders.
