Living Open Source Foundation (L.O.S.F) Kenya Linux Liberant Le Monde

Living Open Source Foundation The mission of the Living Open Source Foundation is to stimulate the growth of local economies by enabling people to develop themselves as experts in the area of Open Source Software. Open Source Software is free to use, access, modify and contribute to anyone. Open Source software does not discriminate against any race, religion or gender and Open Source software is not for the benefit of Fortune 500 Shareholders. Open Source software is for the benefit of humanity. Local economies can flourish because of Open Source Software and individuals can flourish because of Open Source Software as it is free for anyone to use. Key is to educate people The Living Open Source Foundation has the mission to educate people, with a focus on individuals and regions that haven't had their chance to claim their role in the worldwide economy. We are providing training, free of charge for individuals who cannot afford it, and always at a charge that is affordable according to the standards of living in their region. To be able to do so, we need sponsors. By educating people we enable these individuals to claim their position in the worldwide Open Source eco system. The Open Source community does not discriminate and individuals from Gabon have an equal opportunity as individuals from Germany. By educating local open source specialists, the Living Open Source project helps developing local economies. Why would a government pay millions of dollars for proprietary software if open source software is free? July 2019: The first Living Open Source event will be organized in Nairobi Kenya. The focus of the event is to educate 200 individuals or more in Linux basics as well as advanced topics.
