Roadmap

**Status of Open Science in Kenya: Data mining**

The purpose of this project is to explore the adoption of open science practices: open access, open data and open source. For this project, we download all the papers published by Kenya authors and figure out collaboration trends, and whether the papers are openly accessible.

**Milestones reached**
- [x] Abstracts downloaded: Abstracts for all the papers have been downloaded
- [x] Open Access status: We have also checked whether the papers can be downloaded for free
- [x] Exploratory Data analysis complete

**Target Milestones**
1. Answer the following hackathon questions:
- [ ] **Collaboration Trends:** Are Kenyan Authors collaborating within or without?
- [ ] **Open data and code:** Are Kenyan authors making the data and code available and accessible? Are the adhering to the FAIR principles?
- [x] **Open access trends:** How has the adoption of open access practices changed over time? Are Kenyan authors publishing open access?
- [x] **Preprints:** Are Kenyan authors using preprints? If so, who is driving their adoption? Is it the local or foreign collaborators?
2. Collaborative Paper
