Today I received an email from someone who wants to republish the OSCEdays Mission Statement and was asking:
“I am asking OSCE Days for permission to reuse this content and what the appropriate credit/citation process might be if permission is granted.”

##Yes
you can reuse the content. Because all content on the OSCEdays website and in this forum is shared under the

###You are free to:
Share — copy and redistribute the material in any medium or format

##Appropriate Credit
How to give appropriate credit? This depends:

If you create an online publication please add a link to the place where you have found the information (the specific subpage or forum thread!) and to the Creative Commons License CC-BY-SA 4.0.
Example:
