Overview
The Open Access Learning Initiative (OALI) is a collaborative effort to remove barriers to knowledge by providing free courses, open textbooks, and resources that anyone can access, reuse, and build upon. By supporting this initiative, you directly enable content creation, reliable hosting, and community‑driven learning programs that reach learners around the world. The aim is lasting impact: empowering students, teachers, and communities to learn, teach, and innovate without financial obstacles.
Every contribution helps sustain the digital infrastructure that makes free education possible and supports the development of multilingual materials and accessible formats. With your support, Open Access Learning Initiative grows into a more inclusive, sustainable learning ecosystem that serves learners today and prepares them for the challenges of tomorrow.
Why Your Support Matters
Education should be accessible to all, regardless of location or income. Your contributions help cover hosting costs, scale translations into additional languages, and develop accessible formats such as captions, audio descriptions, and offline downloads. They also fund community outreach, open licensing education, and peer mentoring networks that connect learners with mentors and educators.
With continued support, OALI can expand course catalogs, refresh materials to reflect current best practices, and ensure equitable access for learners in underserved communities. Your generosity makes this scalable and sustainable, creating a reliable backbone for open education that honors learners’ time, effort, and aspirations.

- Content development and quality assurance for open courses and textbooks
