IT cooperation: accessible, free, and open
LibrePlanet 2014

This session will introduce you to the philosophy and practice of cooperation, which can help you to live out the principles of free software as a consumer and worker in the tech sector. We will give an overview on the cooperative model and movement, how it relates to the free software philosophy, and provide real ways for you to begin connecting free software to cooperation -- from democratizing your workplace to cross-movement coordination. Voices from different perspectives within the free software and cooperative movements are represented in the slate of presenters, which ensures that we will be equipped to answer your questions and/or point you to additional resources.

Speakers: Yochai Gal Emily Lippold Cheney Leandro Monk
