Stop Software Patents European Petition

Participate In Activities

In addition to taking your own initiatives (such as contacting politicians), there are plenty of possibilities to engage in activities against software patents together with others.
From time to time, this campaign will also recommend particular activities. Support for other, current campaigns is usually reflected by a banner on top of each text. Campaigns may vary from country to country. Simply click the banner to find out more and support the campaign. We also recommend that you visit the forum on this website to read about activities in which you can participate. The forum will always provide the most up-to-date information on that.

The FFII is an organization that coordinates many activities against software patents. Please visit the FFII website. There are many FFII workgroups on topics around software patents, including the NoSoftwarePatents.com (NSP) workgroup that is responsible for maintaining this site. Likely, there will also be a national chapter of FFII active in your country.
