Plenty of academic research end up in obscure publications behind big paywalls. When Abeni Wickham couldn't even access her own scientific paper, she realized that this was also undermining democracy.

This led to the foundation of ⁠SciFree⁠, a digital platform allowing libraries to provide citizens with open access to thousands of academic papers and journals. They also work with digital preservation to safeguard and improve our collective memory.

Heja Framtiden met Abeni at Norrsken House in Stockholm after the event AI for Knowledge and Democracy, as part of the overarching initiative ⁠Prompt What Matters⁠.
