Free culture is closer than we think. It’s so close that in March 2023, we’ll have the Free Culture Days again at the URJC.

Save Wednesday, March 29, and Thursday, March 30, to share with the OfiLibre team the II Free Culture Days of the URJC.

What will we do at the Days?

We’ll have activities like workshops, lectures, and talks, with special guests, around free culture. We’ll see how to create free content, delve into free software, and open publications and data, and, of course, take breaks to eat and have a coffee!

Here you’ll find all the information and important dates

We’re waiting for you! :)
