Hi everyone, 2026 is on its way and we’d love your input! We’ve put together a short poll to better understand who’s here, how you’re involved with Diamond Open Access, and what you’d like to see on the EDCH Forum in 2026. Whether you’re deeply involved in Diamond OA, just getting started, or mostly here to read and learn, your answers will help us: - get a clearer picture of our community, - spot common needs and challenges, - and shape future forum content, events, and activities. Thanks for taking the time, and for being part of the community! **Deadline: end of January** # Who are you in the Diamond universe? **Where are you based?** _Poll ([view on site](https://forum.edch.eu/t/who-s-here-what-do-you-need-a-quick-forum-poll/728/1))_ **Which profile describes you best?** _Poll ([view on site](https://forum.edch.eu/t/who-s-here-what-do-you-need-a-quick-forum-poll/728/1))_ **How would you describe your experience with Diamond OA?** _Poll ([view on site](https://forum.edch.eu/t/who-s-here-what-do-you-need-a-quick-forum-poll/728/1))_ **How are you (or your organisation) involved with Diamond OA publications?** _Poll ([view on site](https://forum.edch.eu/t/who-s-here-what-do-you-need-a-quick-forum-poll/728/1))_ **Where does your funding for your Diamond OA activities mainly come from?** (multiple-choice, don’t forget to submit your vote) _Poll ([view on site](https://forum.edch.eu/t/who-s-here-what-do-you-need-a-quick-forum-poll/728/1))_ **What were or would be the main steps needed to support a transition to Diamond OA?** (multiple-choice, don’t forget to submit your vote) _Poll ([view on site](https://forum.edch.eu/t/who-s-here-what-do-you-need-a-quick-forum-poll/728/1))_ **What’s your Diamond OA superpower?** (multiple-choice, don’t forget to submit your vote) _Poll ([view on site](https://forum.edch.eu/t/who-s-here-what-do-you-need-a-quick-forum-poll/728/1))_ **What is your biggest challenge with Diamond OA right now?** (multiple-choice, don’t forget to submit your vote) _Poll ([view on site](https://forum.edch.eu/t/who-s-here-what-do-you-need-a-quick-forum-poll/728/1))_ # Your life on the EDCH Forum **How do you mostly use the Forum?** _Poll ([view on site](https://forum.edch.eu/t/who-s-here-what-do-you-need-a-quick-forum-poll/728/1))_ **What do you come looking for when you visit the forum?** (multiple-choice, don’t forget to submit your vote)) _Poll ([view on site](https://forum.edch.eu/t/who-s-here-what-do-you-need-a-quick-forum-poll/728/1))_ **What would make the forum more useful or fun for you in 2026?** (multiple choices, don’t forget to submit your vote)) _Poll ([view on site](https://forum.edch.eu/t/who-s-here-what-do-you-need-a-quick-forum-poll/728/1))_ ---
