The OERu is a bold and ambitious international initiative which aims to provide more affordable access to higher education using open education approaches in a sustainable and scalable way.
On 23 February 2011, the OER Foundation convened an open meeting where the concept of the OERu was first proposed and discussed. With funding support from UNESCO, we were able to stream the meeting live on the Internet with opportunities for remote participants to engage. We asked Sir John Daniel, former President of the Commonwealth of Learning and former Vice Chancellor of the Open University for advice to guide our thinking and discussions during the inaugural OERu meeting.
