Belgium is celebrating Open Access Week 2025 with three webinars. This edition of Open Access Week is dedicated to researchers and their need for guidance through open access publication models and projects.

As an academic author, navigating copyright in the era of Open Access can be challenging. In this session, you will learn how to strategically manage and retain your rights before, during, and after publication. We provide you with concrete tools and legal insights to maximize the impact of your work.
After this session, you will be able to:

– Choose and apply the right Creative Commons license for your specific goals.
– Understand and exercise your statutory right of secondary publication under Belgian law.
– Implement a rights retention strategy to secure your author’s rights before signing a publishing agreement.
– Navigate the challenges of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in academic publishing, focusing on copyright implications and publisher policies.
