As a researcher, you do it all: teach, publish, apply for funding. Yet when trying to publish openly, the door often stays closed because of high costs, limited funds, and prestige bias. That’s why the University of Bonn supports researchers in overcoming these barriers to #OpenAccess.

An illustration in blue and yellow tones shows a Black woman researcher standing in front of a large closed door labeled “Open Access.” She holds a stack of papers and looks thoughtful. In front of the door are several obstacles labeled with challenges such as “High article processing charge,” “I have no funding to cover article processing fees,” and “There are no rewards for publishing OA.” The image symbolizes the barriers researchers face when trying to publish Open Access.
