Good to see #SAGERguidelines being appreciated by researcher and authors. Let's promote gender sensitive research. It's also available in other languages. Get in touch with @EASEeditors or @GENDRO for more information.
Replying to @hatimsusan
Some great recommendations to solve this include; encouraging publishers, authors & peer reviewers to make use of the SAGER guidelines set out by the European Association of Science Editors @EASEeditors in research design #researchequity @INASPinfo @AJOLinfo @JOLsProject @wougnet

Our (western) focus on African libraries is a deficit model, what they don't have. Stops us looking more closely on what is being done and the similarities we all share #UKSG2019

"If the goal of research is to improve the lives of people everywhere, then we need to equip ourselves with the insights of researchers from diverse backgrounds. One way to do this is by fostering a research system that encourages progress, not prestige." ow.ly/9ehm30mqSso

A South African commercial company, Sabinet, has apparently named a new product of theirs "African Journals Online Publishing Platform". Please note that this has NOTHING to do with African Journals Online, except for charging SA journals for some services AJOL provides for free.
