Access 120,000 scientific publications for a flat monthly fee on ZendyPlus Algeria!



DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, 20th February 2020: Users in Algeria can now subscribe to ZendyPlus and access more than 120,000 scientific publications, covering medicine, engineering, business and other subjects including top titles such as Science, Harvard Business Review and many more!
Let's pretend you're an independent learner, looking for the latest research in chemistry. Recent records show that a year’s subscription to reputable journal comes to around $358. However, access to one journal is rarely enough. Let's look at the subscription costs for some other journals. If you were to look at more specific journals in genetics and biotechnology these would come to an average of $250 each, bringing your total up to $858 per year, $71 (8549.47 DZD) per month with access to only 3 journals.
These prices make scientific discovery inaccessible to most people without institutional access! One has to either pay exorbitant amounts for accessing quality research or find a way to source the findings directly from the author which is usually a longer route.
"With the current environmental, social, and political turmoil across the globe, we have a chance to form a global brain, and move towards a more knowledgeable tomorrow. However, we've been stuck struggling to access research. This is where the need for Zendy was born from." - Founder and CEO, Knowledge E, Kamran R. Kardan.

About Zendy
Zendy is an online platform created to provide individuals with access to scholarly research and literature. Zendy originates from the notion of building a more knowledgeable world, as there has never been a time where easy, affordable access to content has been more needed. Current scholarly databases exist behind crippling paywalls or require university facilitated access, which is a challenge for individuals across the globe not affiliated with institutions. Access to scientific publications is particularly troublesome in developing countries, where many universities cannot afford the subscription databases required for advancing research and studies. Zendy is working to remove barriers from scholarly discovery to make academic literature affordable and accessible to everyone, all academic and non-academic professionals, students, and knowledge enthusiasts. Zendy is developed by Knowledge E in a growing collaboration with researchers, students, institutions, and publishers to facilitate the democratisation of knowledge.
Zendy is now available in Algeria, Jordan and Morocco with the rest of Africa and Middle East to follow in 2020.

International Day of Education, AI and education: Preserving human agency in a world of automation
Every year on January 24, people around the world come together to celebrate the International Day of Education. It’s a time to reflect on how AI in education shapes our lives, opens up opportunities, and helps build more knowledge and discoveries. For 2025, the theme is both timely and thought-provoking: "AI and Education: Preserving Human Agency in a World of Automation." The 2025 theme highlights the growing role of artificial intelligence (AI) in education. It’s about exploring how learning can help us navigate new technology while making sure we stay in charge of the decisions and ideas that shape our future. With automation becoming more common, the conversation focuses on how we can balance these advances with our values and individuality while using AI responsibly. What’s Happening This Year? UNESCO will host a gathering at the United Nations headquarters to explore the relationship between AI and education, focusing on how education can adapt to these changes and exploring its opportunities and challenges Global Event in Paris: On January 24, 2025, UNESCO will host a global event in Paris focusing on the intersection of AI and education. Global Event in New York: A parallel event will take place at the United Nations headquarters in New York, addressing similar themes. Webinar on Lifelong Learning in the Age of AI: Organised by the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning, this online webinar on January 24, 2025, will explore the implications of AI for lifelong learning. Why This Day Matters The International Day of Education is a reminder of how essential learning is to solving big challenges, such as poverty, climate change, inequality, conflict, public health, and access to resources. It’s a moment to share progress, build connections, and spark new ideas for making education better and more inclusive. By focusing on AI this year, the goal is to encourage thoughtful discussions about how technology can work for us without losing sight of what makes us human.
