A guide to open source for the social sector

GitHub has launched a new guide to help nonprofits and social sector organizations adopt open source software, emphasizing its potential to enhance collaboration, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness while supporting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This initiative aims to leverage open source technology for social good, offering examples like identifying drug candidates for diseases in low-income countries and supporting human rights groups with demographic data. The guide, adapted from a training developed for the United Nations, provides resources on implementing, contributing to, and maintaining open source projects, as well as building engaged communities. GitHub is also offering free Team accounts for qualifying nonprofits, encouraging them to utilize open source software to amplify their impact.
