Abstract
Open science hardware (OSH) as a concept usually refers to artifacts, but also to a practice, a discipline and a collective of people pushing for open access to the design of science tools. Since 2016, the Global Open Science Hardware (GOSH) movement gathers actors from academia, education, the private sector and civic organisations to advocate for OSH to be ubiquitous by 2025. In Latin America, GOSH advocates have fundraised and gathered around the development of annual "residencies" for building hardware for science and education. The community is currently defining its regional strategy and identifying other regional actors working on science and technology democratization. In this presentation I will give an overview of the open hardware movement for science, with a focus on the activities and strategy of the Latin American chapter and concrete ways to engage.
