The report is an initial scoping study trying to understand how similar technologies to X5GON can be suited to further the development and expansion of OER in achieving United Nations SDG 4.

We presented the project to an international audience at this year’s Mobile Learning Week at UNESCO. For this purpose we organised a workshop titled Using AI and OER data – convergence among OER platforms offers unprecedented opportunities. The presentation was met with enthusiastic feedback and the basic structure of the platform we developed seems to appeal institutions to make sense of their OER materials and create organic growth outside their repositories.
