This map show policies around the world which have been established in support of open education. It includes open data from:
- The Creative Commons OER Policy Registry
- The Policies for OER Uptake (POERUP) wiki
- The list of OER projects published by Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC)

Key
- L = Local/Institutional
- R = Regional
- N = National
- I = International
We don’t distinguish between policies investing in OER development; policies in support of open licensing; and policies in support of open access – though this is a distinction we could make in future if the OER community might find it useful.
You can send us details of policies for inclusion on the map here.
