Tracking changes: activists using free software across movements
LibrePlanet 2014

For years, activists have been using free software tools in their efforts to organize and build movements. Bringing together organizers from the media justice and digital rights movements, which all rely on the use of free software in their advocacy and essential communications, this panel explores the centrality of technology to all projects of social change. We will question how activists use free software and how the adoption of free software has helped or impeded networking efforts.

Speakers: April Glaser Ana Martina Libby Reinish Dan Staples
