Open practices are more than methods or resources—they are the ways we actively reshape education through openness. The 2026 Open Education Awards for Excellence recognize innovative approaches transforming how learning, teaching, and knowledge sharing occur around the world. Open Practices include: 🌱 Programs that expand access and equity in education 🌱 Teaching and learning approaches grounded in openness 🌱 Institutional policies advancing open access and transparency 🌱 Community-led educational initiatives 🌱 Collaborative research and co-creation models 🌱 Efforts that bridge formal and informal learning spaces What makes them transformative is not just what they do, but the values they embody: accessibility, inclusivity, transparency, collaboration, and public benefit. Recognizing innovation helps it spread. And the people driving these approaches deserve recognition for their impact. Take a moment to reflect on your own context—your institution, community, or field of practice. Is there a program making education more equitable? A teaching approach shifting outcomes for learners? An institutional policy advancing openness? A collaborative initiative connecting people across borders and disciplines? These are the practices that quietly—but powerfully—change education. The Open Practices category of the 2026 Awards is now open for nominations. You have until 22 June to nominate innovations that are making a difference to your educational context.
