<h1>The FSFE is hiring a Project Manager with a focus on communications and sustainability</h1>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
We are looking for a person with a communications background to support
|

us in our running and upcoming projects, including our upcoming digital

<h2>About the FSFE</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
Free Software Foundation Europe is a charity that empowers users to
|
||
control technology. Software is deeply involved in all aspects of our
|
||
lives and it is important that technology empowers rather than
|
||
restricts us. Free Software gives everybody the rights to use,
|
||
understand, adapt, and share software. These rights help support other
|
||
fundamental freedoms like freedom of speech, press, and privacy.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
The FSFE helps individuals and organisations to understand how Free
|
||
Software contributes to freedom, transparency, and
|
||
self-determination. It enhances users' rights by abolishing barriers
|
||
to Free Software adoption, encourages people to use and develop Free
|
||
Software, and provides resources to enable everyone to further
|
||
promote Free Software in Europe.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
We are involved in <a href="/activities/">many activities</a> in the
|
||
legal, economic, political and technical areas around Free Software.
|
||
Our work is made possible by a community of volunteers, supporters,
|
||
donors, and staff.
