Never heard about OpenDenmark? This is the place to start. 

The organisation OpenDenmark was founded in may 2019. We are a non-profit organization who wants to help everybody in knowing what open means and what potentials open content and open software can have for you.

Why the opposite umbrella? 

So why is OpenDenmarks logo an umbrella turning upsite down?

There are more reasons for using the umbrella as the logo of OpenDenmark. 

We want to be an umbrella organization, that wants to connect and unite open initiatives.

We want to show that in the perspective of how copyright works, think of it as an umbrella, that protects the rightsholder from the surroundings, the turned umbrella could be what we call copyleft – it does not avoid the surroundings, but take part in and advantage of the surroundings.

We would also like to help foster new ideas and who knows, perhaps help you in finding new contacts and collaborators for your projects.

Also, look at the umbrella as a tool to collect knowledge. We look for open projects, software, culture heritage, repositories and open minded people. An umbrella is waterproof, so what could be better to collect in?

What can we do for you?

First of all, we can help you, if you want to know anything about open knowledge, open licenses and open software, that happens in Denmark. 

We dont know everything, but sometimes we know who might. 

What can you do for us?

Since you might not speak Danish as a native speaker, the chances are that you know other languages, areas and countries than we might do. 

If you know of any open initiatives in other parts of the world, we would like to hear from you!
