I just happened to notice that this thread here, especially the podcast itself and its transcript, are highly relevant to the topic at hand here as well. Four representatives of national consortia (from Canada, Finland, Norway and The Netherlands) discuss how they support Diamond OA journals at the national level. And they also discuss how this relates to scholarly societies. > [@How can Diamond Open Access be funded? Three different approaches are presented in this podcast!](https://forum.edch.eu/t/how-can-diamond-open-access-be-funded-three-different-approaches-are-presented-in-this-podcast/283): > > Join Sami Syrjämäki (TSV – Federation of Finnish Learned Societies), Jessica Dallaire-Clark (Érudit), Jeroen Sondervan (NWO – Dutch Research Council) & Per Pippin Aspaas (UiT The Arctic University of Norway) as they discuss different national Diamond Open Access funding models.
