We’re participating in Digital Independence Day 🌱💻

Our digital infrastructure is increasingly centralised and proprietary. Open-source tools and federated networks offer another path: transparent, community-owned, resilient.

Digital Independence Day happens every first Sunday of the month. The idea is simple:
→ switch one proprietary service
→ to a free / open alternative
→ together, at a realistic pace

First session:
01.02.2026 · 14:00 CET
WhatsApp → Signal

Hosted by EuPN & the Digital Circle
Online via Jits for members of the EuPN and the Colab. https://permaculture-network.eu/news/eupn-joins-digital-independence-day

New year resolutions are easy to forget.
A permaculture design isn’t.
Barbara Scheltus suggests we sketch our intentions instead of listing resolutions. Let’s design our change!
