Volunteer Engagement Activities
Since its foundation in
2001, the FSFE has been working every single day to further software
freedom in Europe and beyond. Beside the activities below, a large part
of our work consists of continuous engagement and background work
contributing at events and answering
questions and enquiries around software freedom.
Our vision: that people enjoy to contribute to FSFE and feel
empowered and effective.

We often underestimate the power of a simple Thank
You. Free Software contributors do important work for our society and the "I Love Free Software Day" on 14 February is the perfect opportunity for you to express your special gratitude. Since 2010, we have celebrated this wonderful annual event with an ever-growing and diverse community. ♥ ♥ ♥

This year, the FSFE turns 25 and we celebrate it on the 18th and
19th of July in Kraków. In this activity you will find and overview of
the agenda of the event, filled with talks, networking, and
plenty of fun.
More Volunteer Engagement Activities

En 2021, la Free Software Foundation Europe cumple 20 años. A lo
largo de este tiempo hemos empoderado a los usuarios para que
pudieran usar, estudiar, compartir y mejorar el software. En 20
años de la FSFE, queremos dar las gracias a todos los que nos han
ayudado en este camino. Aquí encontrarás entrevistas en las que se
analiza la trayectoria de la FSFE, así como cuestiones
tecnológicas. ¡Te invitamos a celebrarlo con nosotros!
FOSS4SMEs was a two-year collaborative Erasmus+ project to spread and
increase knowledge about Free Software. The FSFE collaborate with the other
partners to develop free online educational resources for managers and
employees of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
La Brave GNU World fue una columna mensual publicada entre 1999 y 2004,
dirigida tanto a lectores con conocimientos técnicos como a aquellos
sin ellos. Su objetivo era ofrecer una visión general de los
proyectos y avances actuales basados en la filosofía del Software
Libre. The Brave GNU World se tradujo a nueve idiomas, lo que la
convirtió probablemente en la columna mensual de mayor difusión del
mundo.
The GNU Business Network had the vision to network all companies,
developers and users in and around Free Software in a way that the
potential synergies are encouraged and informed decisions become possible.
The TUX&GNU@school column was a regular column about Free
Software in education written by by Mario Fux. It informed about
educational Free Software, useful web sites on the topic and
other interesting topics for teachers, students and all software
freedom advocates.
Free Software is often referred to as "Open Source". But we are
convinced that Free Software is the better term: easier to
understand, harder to abuse, well-defined, providing additional
value, and offering freedom. We connected companies,
organisations and even co-founders of the Open Source movement
that prefer to use the term Free Software.
