Universal Design for Learning or UDL is a teaching philosophy addressing the diversity of the student population at third level Institutions and focuses on inclusive learning for everyone. It facilitates students with a disability to digitally access their course learning materials in various formats (text, visual , audio ) which they can customise for their own personal needs but it is a philosophy that extends beyond the needs of students with disabilities.
This web link provides more details about the principles of UDL https://udlguidelines.cast.org/

Open education is a philosophy about the way people should produce, share, and build on knowledge. Open education advocates believe everyone in the world should have access to high-quality educational experiences and resources. Open Education is a philosophy therefore about the way people should produce, share and build on knowledge, and remove barriers such as monetary costs, accessibility challenges, outdated or obsolete materials and anything that impedes collaboration between learners and educators.
