Organization Information

Mission Statement

To promote the research, development, and utilization of Open Technologies and Open Standards for sustained Social, Economic and Environmental Development (SEED) with an emphasis on locally and culturally fit solutions.

Description

In iFOSSF, we believe a lack of access to Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) is keeping people in under-served communities from realizing the full benefits of globalization. The organization is established to accelerate the research and development of enabling ICT with Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) worldwide for sustained social and economic development, especially for the socially disadvantaged.

The organization facilitates growth of new and emerging businesses with consideration for equal inclusion, and provides strategic leadership in developing FOSS opportunities that are driven by both market and social contexts.
