DESCRIPTION
Learn about the soon-to-be-launched Creative Commons Institute for Open Leadership. Creative Commons will develop an Institute for Open Leadership to train new leaders in education, science, and public policy fields on the values and implementation of openness in licensing, policies, and practices. By training new leaders, connecting them to each other and helping them complete their first capstone open project in their institution, we will prepare them to guide emerging movements in open science, open education, open government, and open culture. These movements are using Creative Commons licenses to broaden public access to knowledge, data, culture, and research around the world, creating new opportunities for education, innovation, and creativity.The Institute for Open Leadership will select twenty applicants in year one and twenty applicants in year two, through a competitive application process, to participate in an intensive week-long training session with leading experts in open fields. Each participant will develop an outcomes-based plan for a capstone open project, and report on progress within one year. Through training and the project period, participants will develop the skills, relationships, and motivation to become leaders for openness in their institutions and fields.

WHY?
Current system = broken
Optimized system = possible!
OPEN POLICY:Publicly funded
resources are openly licensed resources
EXAMPLE
● Warsaw CC Summit 2011
● OER on the radar of policymakers
● affiliates requested support
● current efforts decentralized and uncoordinated
● need a network to share and discuss
● need best data, toolkits, arguments
● let’s not miss opportunities that arise!
IDEA
MISSION● Foster the creation, adoption, and
implementation of open policies that advance the public good.
● Do this by supporting advocates, organizations, policymakers, and connecting policy opportunities with those who can provide assistance.
PRINCIPLES
• ‘Open Policy’: publicly funded resources are openly licensed resources
• Default aim for policy licensing: Open Definition (with preference for CC BY and CC0).
• Do not recreate the wheel; leverage expertise
• Work from existing policy recommendations: Paris OER, BOAI, Panton Principles, Communia, etc.
• Free for anyone to join. Contribute and abide by mission and guiding principles.
WORK PLAN● Link to, catalog, and curate existing policy resources.
● Build new resources and/or services only where capacity or expertise does not currently exist.
● Connect policy makers to experts.
● Provide baseline level of assistance for all opportunities.
● Share information with openly with members and the public, using open licenses (of course), multiple languages, transparent fashion.
