 <h1>Chaos Communication Camp 2023: back to the grounds!</h1>
 <p>
 One of our favourite events was back this summer: Chaos Communication 
 Camp 2023! This popular quadrennial event brings together technologists, 
 activists and enthusiasts from around the world to discuss, share and 
 celebrate technology, privacy and freedom in Brandenburg, Germany. This 
 year, the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) joined the campers as 
 part of the 'Bits und Bäume' village.
 </p>
 <p>
 For five days, from the 15th to the 19th of August, this open-air event 
 in Zehdenick brought together 6000 people from all over the world to 
 exchange technical, social and political ideas. In the Bits und Bäume 
 village, the FSFE crew set up a booth with comfortable air cushions for 
 people to talk, read and discuss Free Software. This relaxed and 
 welcoming environment encouraged participants to network and interact 
 within the Free Software community.

 <p>
 As well as taking part in fruitful discussions and listening to 
 interesting presentations, our team at the camp also took to the stage 
 to share some of our initiatives with the participants.
 </p> 
 <h2>FSFE talks, workshops, book reading ...</h2>
 <p>
 Under the title "Sharing the Power of Appreciation: I Love Free Software 
 Day", Bonnie Mehring gave an in-depth explanation of FSFE's <a 
 href="/activities/ilovefs">I Love Free Software Day</a>, highlighting 
 the importance of this event to raise awareness and gratitude for Free 
 Software contributors. Although this initiative has been going on for 
 over a decade, this was the first time there had been a public talk 
 about its history, the importance of the day, past activities, and 
 future activities.

 <a href="/activities/yh4f">Youth Hacking 4 Freedom</a>, FSFE's coding 
 contest for young Europeans, was also presented at CCCamp, in this case 
 on the Youth Hackt stage. This presentation showed the importance of 
 involving young people in Free Software, encouraging them to be part of 
 the movement, and helping them to meet like-minded people and make 
 friends during the competition. The second round of the contest is <a 
 href="/news/2023/news-20230724-01.html"> currently underway</a>, while 
 the third round will be announced by the end of the year. To stay tuned, 
 please subscribe to the <a

 mailing list</a>.

 <p>
 At the Bits und Bäume workshop tent, Tobias Diekershoff explained the <a 
 href="https://reuse.software/">REUSE tool</a>. This interactive session 
 showed attendees how to use this set of tools as well as its benefits 
 for managing and sharing Free Software projects. REUSE allows defines a 
 standardized method for declaring copyright and licensing for software 
 projects, emphasising the importance of proper licensing and 
 documentation.
 </p>
 <p>Last but not least, we also have an event with the little "campers". A 
 captivating book reading session of the book<a 
 href="/activities/ada-zangemann/">" Ada and Zangemann"</a> in the Family 
 Village. This heartwarming story introduced young and not-so-young 
 readers into the world of technology, tinkering, and software freedom 
 through the adventures of Ada, a young hacker who learns to control and 
 understand technology.</p>

 <h2>...and Free Software Sing-along</h2>
 <p>
 True to our tradition, we organised the Free Software Sing-along, a 
 delightful and fun activity that served as an easy entry point for 
 newcomers to learn about and engage with the Free Software Foundation 
 Europe. Three sessions were held, each with musical accompaniment. 
 Participants enjoyed singing along while connecting with like-minded 
 people.
 </p>
 <h2>The FSFE at the Chaos Communication Camp</h2>
 <p>
 FSFE's active participation in Chaos Communication Camp 2023 as part of 
 the 'Bits und Bäume' village, village left an indelible mark. The 
 engaging talks, workshops, book readings and singalongs helped raise 
 awareness and educate participants about the importance of software 
 freedom by promoting the values of Free Software at the Chaos 
 Communication Camp.

 The event was a lot of fun and wouldn't have been possible without the dedication and
 commitment of our volunteers. Thank you for joining us at the Chaos 
 Communication Camp 2023! ❤️❤️❤️
