Action Area 1 – Capacity Building
OER Repositories and Training

Establishing and maintaining Open Educational Resource (OER) repositories is essential for ensuring widespread access to high-quality learning materials. Capacity-building efforts should focus on training educators, librarians, and administrators in the effective use, contribution, and curation of OER repositories. Training programs should also emphasize metadata standards, interoperability, and discoverability to enhance the accessibility and usability of OER across different platforms.
