[Geo4All] The Pledge – I support Open Principles for Science and Education for building a better world for everyone

[Hogan, Patrick (ARC-PX)]

Suchith,

I am a pledge for the pledge. ☺

Some suggested edits attached (and here just below).

I believe Science is a public good and quality education opportunities should be open and accessible for everyone.

I will work to eliminate the digital divide and contribute to building up Open Knowledge for the benefit of all humanity, with special effort to enlighten future generations.

I contribute my service for the betterment of all humanity using the guiding principles of the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in building a better world for everyone.

I will work to advance and increase Open Knowledge for the benefit of all humanity with special consideration of those less fortunate.

I will be a voice for Open Principles in Science and Education and promote this pledge through my networks.

-Patrick
