It's our 20th Anniversary! Nonprofit staff, developers, capacity builders, and grassroots activists will convene at the 2023 Nonprofit Software Development Summit to share knowledge, build capacity, and collectively envision the future of free, open and equitable digital tools and practices to support social change efforts. To get a sense of what went down at our 2022 event, check out last year's agenda and session notes.

Social media as we know it depends on the work of tens of thousands of content moderators worldwide. Without this hidden army of key safety workers, there is no Facebook, no TikTok, no YouTube and no Google. They keep the internet safe for all of us. Despite their essential role, which comes at a terrible cost to their mental health, they remain underpaid and outsourced. That’s why we are proud to be co-hosting a landmark content moderator summit in Berlin.

Aspiration focuses on supporting the advancement of software engineering practices such as Reproducible Builds and cryptography. Since 2016, we have proudly co-organized the HACS Workshop, and HACS 2023 took place in Toyko in a participatory environment intended to foster collaborations towards making cryptographic software flawless.

We were inspired and grateful to partner with Superrr Lab to co-create the first-ever Digital Futures Gathering. Independent researchers, activists and civil society practitioners convened in Berlin to shift our collective thinking from reactive to proactive, imagining just and sustainable digital futures and developing collaborative strategies to realize those visions.
