Initiated by the swissuniversities alliance, the PLATO project (2022-2024) develops a sustainable funding model that enables collaborative community-driven and high-quality Open Access Publishing in Switzerland. HOPE provides a platform to researchers of the University of Zurich for publishing in Open Access journals
