Fund plans to transition publicly funded schools to open source software

Many schools default to teaching with expensive closed source tools and licences, which in our view limits school budgets when there are free alternatives. We believe that by teaching youths exclusively closed source software in school they continue to pay the expense of these tools into adulthood, increasing ICT costs for households and businesses. Other European nations have already begun the change, which we think improves digital sovereignty and national security. In our view, the change is inevitable, it’s just which generation will be part of it.
