Access to Research in the Developing World
For institutions in developing countries:
The Research4Life consortium provides access to eligible institutions through four subject-wise portals:
- HINARI provides access to more than 5,500 journals in the health and social sciences;
- AGORA provides access to some 1,200 journals in the agricultural sciences;
- OARE provides access to more than 2,000 journals in the environmental sciences;
- ARDI provides access to nearly 10,000 journals, books, and reference works for 107 developing countries.
Thanks to the consortium, journals listed on these sites that are not usually ‘open access’ are made available for free to eligible institutions.
