Education by Collaboration

Fee Knowledge and Free Software go together. Even the definition of the two is very similar.

Education and life-long learning are about sharing and generating knowledge.

The libre knowledge vision has been expressed as follows: "Knowledge for all, freedom to learn, towards collective wisdom enabling people to empower themselves with knowledge and to share it for community benefit."

When knowledge is shared electronically, the freedom to use, modify (localise),enhance, mix and share, is essential for effective knowledge transfer. Localisation is almost always required.

The "copy left" model, the free licenses and the free and open standards and file formats as well as a few other things are fundamental for free culture, free knowledge, education, and self learning in the future.

The question is how do we get more awareness about free knowledge and the free education programs into our schools as well as our homes?

There is no single, and efficient strategy. We have to look for more ways to distribute our message in order to reach our goal. Collaboration between learning projects, and other stakeholders is the key.
