Difference between revisions of "FKI:Strategy/Value proposition"

Summarising, our value proposition is the following. We offer a shared vision and common platform for education, collaboration and advocacy in free knowledge and free technology. The online platform is completely based on free software and free knowledge and is organised in a bottom-up manner. On top of that, there are learning, economic and activist opportunities. Transversal through all these are the following characteristics:

• freedom: any individual or group has the same rights to the knowledge produced in the context of the FKI, be it software, course books, articles or other digital artefacts; while collaboration within the community has its advantages, everyone has the freedom to fork and continue the way he or she sees fit (no lock-up);
• consistency in values: walk the talk, practice what you preach: use free software and knowledge in every aspect, share knowledge with peers;
• flexible, self-directed collaborative learning;
• accreditation via partners, and recognition by peers;
• low-cost services for those interested;
• agile on-demand course development;
• autonomous development teams working together through the Free Technology Guild;
• a common platform to participate in and run campaigns along these lines.
