One the leading initiative is the “Observatory and Laboratory for Free Software”. Antonio Faccioli, the scientific coordinator of the digital courses of the ITS Academy LAST, and a Free Software enthusiast, was the idealizer of this partnership.

This partnership represents an important step for the FSFE to engage with students and educational communities in Italy. It is important to convey to next generation of professionals the message of Free Software, especially in broader contexts the mean of technology in a democratic society.
