FSMI is an abbr. of Free Software Movement of India

We are a national coalition of various regional and sectoral free software movements operating in different parts of India. Sixteen Free Software Movements (FSMs) working in various states and sectors came together and decided to form a National coalition of FSMs in this Four-day National conference.

Some of the major aims of FSMI are :

    Take forward free software and its ideological implications to all corners of our nation from the developed domains to the underprivileged
    Creating awareness among computer users in the use of free software
    Work towards usage of free software in all streams of sciences and research
    Take forward implementation and usage of free software in school education, academics and higher education
    Work towards e-literacy and bridging digital divide based on free software and mobilising the underprivileged
    Work among developers on solutions catering to societal & national requirements
    Work towards a policy change favouring free software in all walks of life
    Stop any penetration of software patents and methods which restrict the development, usage and percolation of knowledge
