We're inviting local free software supporters like you to organize an in-person community meetup in your area to bring people all over the world together and celebrate forty years of commitment to software freedom. We're setting up a small fund for these local gatherings *and* you can invite an FSF staff member to give a talk or workshop during your event *and* of course, we'll help promote it.
Create an opportunity to share your favorite moments in the free software movement with each other, debate the biggest challenges to software freedom and how to cope with them, or discuss, how can we best promote free software at universities, colleges, in government institutions, or among our friends. These are just some ideas. In the end, the agenda, date, and location are entirely up to you. The only requirement is that all meetups stick to the Safe Space Policy. By listing or attending any of the meetups below you agree to follow the Safe Space Policy.
If you or a few fellow activists are ready to organize a get-together in your area please list your meetup below. Feel free to email us at campaigns@fsf.org with any questions you may have.
