- The purpose of this paper is to discuss and identify some benefits of Open access (OA) initiatives in Portugal and Brazil. Open access is a powerful tool to promote knowledge and means that any individual user, anywhere, who has access to the Internet, may link, read, download, store, print-off, use, and data-mine the digital content of a research article published in peer-reviewed journals. This article usually has limited copyright and licensing restrictions. OA is an idea that might change the publishing landscape to bring benefits to many researchers all over the world and to approach them for international partnerships. That integration will result in benefits for all the nations. Besides many countries have the problem of the lack of visibility of the knowledge generated by their researchers. There are a lot of important OA initiatives in Brazil and Portugal. These initiatives appear in differentiated development stages. It is very important to establish partnerships and to gather efforts inside of the country and, also, with other countries to take advantage of the internet resources. These issues will certainly lead to the emergence of larger projects, with more visibility, quality and improvement of costs.
