I believe Science is a public good and quality education opportunities should be open and accessible for everyone. I will work to eliminate the digital divide and contribute to building up Open Knowledge for the benefit of all humanity, with special effort to enlighten future generations. I contribute my service for the betterment of all humanity using the guiding principles of the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in building a better world for everyone. I will work to advance and increase Open Knowledge for the benefit of all humanity with special consideration of those less fortunate. I will be a voice for Open Principles in Science and Education and promote this pledge through my networks. -Patrick From: GeoForAll-ab [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Suchith Anand Sent: Sunday, June 18, 2017 9:04 AM To: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: [geoforall-ab] The Pledge – I support Open Principles for Science and Education for building a better world for everyone Dear colleagues, Please find below the draft of the pledge for supporting Open Principles for Science and Education for building a better world for everyone.
