Document Freedom Day @ LibreOffice

In one month, on March 26, we will celebrate Document Freedom Day 2025. For the first time in a while, the LibreOffice project will play a major role in organizing the event.

During the day, we will mainly talk about the ISO Open Document Format, which was approved in 2005 by OASIS and in 2006 by ISO. Due to the global scale of the LibreOffice project, our events will be online.

There will be three webinars at 10:30 CET, 15:30 CET and 20:30 CET, with a presentation on the history of ODF and the great importance of the standard document format for digital sovereignty.

In addition, we will be connected for question and answer sessions at 1 p.m. CET and 6 p.m. CET, to delve deeper into the topics of the webinar and to satisfy the curiosity of users, most of whom use a proprietary format without being aware of it, and are therefore victims of Microsoft’s lock-in strategies.

In addition to online events, there will also be physical events organized by local open source communities. All events should be registered on the Document Freedom Day web page.

If you are planning to organize one of these events, please contact us at media@documentfoundation.org. We can help you by sending you LibreOffice and Open Document Format leaflets/flyers and stickers.
