The Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) was founded in 2001 to support all aspects of the free software movement in Europe. FSFE is a charitable registered association (eingetragener Verein) under German law, and has registered 'chapters' in several European countries.[2] It is an official European sister organization of the US-based Free Software Foundation (FSF). FSF and FSFE are financially and legally separate entities. FSFE believes that access to and control of software determines who may participate in a digital society. Therefore, the freedoms to use, copy, modify and redistribute software, as described in The Free Software Definition, are necessary for equal participation in the Information Age.[3] GoalsThe focus of FSFE's work is political, legal, and social with the aim of promoting free software and the ethical, philosophical, social, political and commercial values that it implements.[4] In particular, it
Example projects"Public Money? Public Code!" campaign In September 2017, FSFE launched the "Public Money? Public Code!" campaign by publishing an open letter signed by other organizations and calling for European and national Members of Parliament to “Implement legislation requiring that publicly financed software developed for the public sector be made publicly available under a Free and Open Source Software licence”.[5][6][7] Among the 150 signing organizations (as of July 2018), the campaign is supported by digital rights NGOs like Creative Commons[8], Open Source Initiative[9], Electronic Frontier Foundation[10], EDRi[11], April[12], Chaos Computer Club[13], and national chapters of Wikimedia (Germany[14], Czech Republic, France and Italy[7] as well as organizations responsible for the development and maintenance of Free and Open Source Software like OpenSUSE,[15] Fedora, Tor, Debian and Videolan[7]. The campaign was publicly endorsed by more than 18 000 individuals (as of July 2018) including public figures such as Edward Snowden[16][17], Francesca Bria (CTO of the city of Barcelona)[18] as well as public administrations like the City of Barcelona[7].
Each month, FSFE publishes a newsletter, in multiple languages (including English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish), of their activities that can be mentioned in public.[24] StructureFrom FSFE's published "Self-Conception": "The people of the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE), see ourselves as Europeans from different cultures with the shared goal of co-operation across cultures and of developing a common culture of co-operation from a regional to a global level. We form a non-profit non-governmental organisation and network that itself is part of a global network of people with common goals and visions. We are not representative for anyone but ourselves and our work. Our common work and dedication to freedom in all aspects of digital society is what defines us."[25] Internally, the FSFE has a consensus-oriented, team structure in which participation is determined by each person's willingness to participate and do work. A democratic and representative-democratic model functions as a fallback for when the consensus-based approach either reaps no results or a quick decision is needed. Legal structureThe FSFE has a modular legal structure with a central "Hub" organisation and the possibility of local legal bodies, called "chapters". The Hub is a charitable association ("e.V.") which is, by happenstance, registered in Germany. As well as being in regular contact with the other FSFs (FSF, FSFI, FSFLA), FSFE has a structure of organisations which are official associates.[26] These are mostly national-level free software groups. AwardsIn 2010 FSFE received the Theodor Heuss Medal in recognition of its work for freedom in the information society. The medal is awarded once a year in Stuttgart by a non-partisan foundation named after West Germany's first president.[27] See also{{Portal|Free and open-source software}}Free Software Foundation organizations
