The Alliance’s activities are based on guidelines collectively developed by publishers and are focused on 5 main actions :
1. Facilitation of an international and intercultural independent publishers network
2. Creation of a Bibliodiversity Observatory : studies, analysis, measurement tools, and a resource centre on bibliodiversity
3. Hosting and facilitation of international meetings, thematic and increasing capacity workshops (see below) to enable sharing, including through the Digital Lab of the Alliance
4. Support of international editorial partnerships (fair co-publishings, translations, copyright transfers)
5. Implementation of advocacy activities in support of freedom of publishing, independent publishing and bibliodiversity.
