Description

discussion needed help wanted

In order to advance open science practices among Kenyan researchers, we need to know where we are. This information can be acquired by searching the literature, news articles, blog posts, among others.

In this project, we will perform an extensive search of relevant sources of information, and do a write up that highlights the progress that has been made to advance open science practices in the country.

This project only requires writing and literature search skills. No coding or data analysis skills are required.
