I agree, that the wikimedia chapters as well as fiff and other organizations could be "an excellent
asset for Students for Free Culture communities".

But sometimes, I think, one of the obstacles for free culture in Europe could be, that there are so many organizations and not a single one which is as visible as the EFF.
Because of that, it can be quite hard to connect with other FC supporters.

Or do you have a different experience?

I guess the fiff.de could support european free culture activities. it
is as well member of edri.org.

Hi,

we have started Free Culture chapters in Germany a few years ago, but
unfortunately there is not much going on at the moment
(http://wiki.freeculture.org/Universit%C3%A4t_Bremen;

In Bremen is not much happening anylonger. There is still a mailinglist...

http://wiki.freeculture.org/University_of_Bamberg).

I'm still enthusiastic about Free Culture in Europe and I think others will
be too. Maybe we could set up our own wiki and/or a mailing list for
european chapters (in english), since there are specific EU problems we
might want to adress (see http://www.edri.org/).

I think there are some translations on http://wiki.freeculture.org which we
could use  (e.g. http://wiki.freeculture.org/Main_Page/de;
http://wiki.freeculture.org/Open_University_Campaign/ca;
http://wiki.freeculture.org/Open_University_Campaign_Polish).

Anyway, it's great to hear from you and we definitely should stay in touch.

Ciao,
Markus

Hello everybody!

As the Free Culture movement grows, we are trying to improve the
communication between each other. In Europe different universities across the UK, France, Italy and Spain have started or are starting a Free Culture chapter. If you live, study or work in Europe and want to step up your involvement or just be informed with what's happening in the Old World with Free Culture drop us an email, share your views, suggest an idea or seek
advice - in any case, get in touch!

Semper ad maiora!

cheers,
