GNU Solidario is very happy to announce that Mr. Stallman will be at IWEEE 2010.

Richard Stallman, is an American software freedom activist, and computer programmer. In September 1983, he launched the GNU Project to create a free Unix-like operating system, and has been the project’s lead architect and organizer. With the launch of the GNU Project, he initiated the free software movement and, in October 1985, set up the Free Software Foundation.

Stallman pioneered the concept of copyleft and is the main author of several copyleft licenses including the GNU General Public License, the most widely used free software license. Since the mid-1990s, Stallman has spent most of his time advocating for free software, as well as campaigning against both software patents and what he sees as excessive extension of copyright laws. Stallman has also developed a number of pieces of widely-used software, including the original Emacs, the GNU Compiler Collection, and the GNU Debugger. He co-founded the League for Programming Freedom in 1989

GNU Solidario està organizando IWEEE 2010.

El Congreso se celebrarà en el auditorio del Hospital Universitario de Gran Canaria Dr. Negrìn.

IWEEE reúne a un equipo multidisciplinario que representa a las ONGs, Academia, Gobierno, Iglesia e Industria, con el fin de compartir sus experiencias e intentar mejorar las vidas de millones de seres humanos en los países en vías de desarrollo.

IWEEE no es una conferencia técnica. Se centra en el factor humano y en crear conciencia de la situación real en la que viven tantos niños. Hablaremos de las herramientas que podemos proporcionar al día de hoy a los doctores e instituciones para mejorar la salud y educación de sus habitantes.

La conferencia promueve el uso del Software Libre como uno de los pilares principales para crear un entorno sostenible en e-salud y educación en los países en vía de desarrollo.
