CP-Union

The document discusses how free and open source software can help advance information and communication technologies for underserved communities. It notes that while technology has advanced, many people have yet to benefit. However, free and open source tools enable grassroots movements to access high-quality software. The document advocates working with non-profits to bring free and open source technology to new areas in order to empower communities and support social movements.
