In this task, we seek the help of contributors to find information on publication funding opportunities for students in low-income countries who want to publish open access.

We will use this Google document to hold the publication funding opportunities information before adding it to the Affordabee site.

I'm not sure if you already detail this open access publisher but F1000Research offers APC discounts and waivers

We had not entered F1000Research to the Low-Cost Open Access table. We'll add it too. Thanks, @Eliz-Oliver1

Also The Company of Biologist's journal Biology Open has 'a small budget for partially or fully waiving Open Access publication charges for authors in developing countries and others in genuine financial hardship'.

We have now moved the information from the table in this Google doc to a spreadsheet. Further information may be added directly to the spreadsheet. Some clean up for the spreadsheet may be required.
