AIU "Open Acces" Initiative
Sharing knowledge is a vital component in the growth and advancement of our society in a sustainable and responsible way. In order to contribute, AIU is implementing an "Open Access" Initiative with academic work, scientific research, projects, and other scholarly work by students, faculty, and other contributors. Through Open Access, AIU and other leading institutions through out the world are tearing down the barriers to access and use research literature.
Our organization is interested in the dissemination of advances in scientific research fundamental to the proper operation of a modern society, in terms of community awareness, empowerment, health and wellness, sustainable development, economic advancement, and optimal functioning of health, education and other vital services. AIU’s mission and vision is consistent with the vision expressed in the Budapest Open Access Initiative and Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities.

AIU "Open Access" Initiative
Therefore, we intend to make progress by:
encouraging our researchers/grant recipients to publish their work according to the principles of the open access paradigm.
encouraging the holders of cultural heritage to support open access by providing their resources on the Internet.
developing means and ways to evaluate open access contributions and online-journals in order to maintain the standards of quality assurance and good scientific practice.
advocating that open access publication be recognized in promotion and tenure evaluation.
advocating the intrinsic merit of contributions to an open access infrastructure by software tool development, content provision, metadata creation, or the publication of individual articles.
