NGO-in-a-box
Base Edition (BaseBox)
     OpenHubs Conference
     Alabel, Sarangani
          pi@womenshub.net
What is NGO-in-a-box ?
   It is a series of toolkits designed to
meet the specialised technology needs
of non-profits. Each toolkit contains a
  selection of Free and Open Source
 Software and associated guides and
                 tutorials.
Current editions
      Security Edition - information and communication

    security tools for human rights activists and
    journalists
     Audio/Video Edition - a host of tools for creating
    and distributing audio and video content
     Open Publishing Edition - a compilation of tools
    and materials for online and offline publishing
     Mobile Phones Edition - a handbook and tool set
    for using mobile phones and telephony
     Citizen Journalism Toolkit - a participatory media
    toolkit for audio making and online and offline
    publishing
Reason for being
  To ‘demystify’ the use of technology
 for NGOs and activists, cutting down
  on the overwhelming choices NGOs
   face when trying to decide which
    software tools to use for which
 purposes. When using Free and Open
 Source Software these problems are
amplified, often sending NGOs into un-
     tested and unfamiliar ground.
What is the Base Edition
      of NGO-in-a-box?
    It is a collection of essential tools for
 running a small-to-medium sized NGO. You
can use this toolkit to set up and coordinate
 your office, organise and manage projects,
     collaborate online and support your
 campaigns. The Box contains a set of peer-
reviewed FOSS tools, with associated guides
   and tutorials, which provides users the
    technical foundations to build upon.
 BaseBox (off-line edition) is targeted
  at users who have limited internet
  access.
 3-CD box set comprising a printed
  booklet and CD with the contents of
  this website along with the profiled
  tools and related documentation and
  tutorials
 available for download is a copy of
  the Ubuntu GNU/Linux operating
  system and a copy of the SME Server
Tools inside BaseBox

   Office Suites and Word Processing
   Finance and Fundraising
   Project Management and Collaboration
   Volunteer and Staff Management
   Web Browsers and Email
   Instant Messaging and Telephony
   Website Creation and Management
   Basic Systems Administration
Practical advantages to using
              FOSS
 Cost effectiveness
 Legality issues
 Increased stability
 Changing licensing conditions
 No technology lock-in
 Increased organisational flexibility
 Enhanced cooperative culture
 Extending life span of hardware and
  reducing waste
 Ability to attract high-level skills at low cost
Strategic value for NGOs and
 progressive social movements

 Mission driven FOSS technology
  adoption processes help NGO staff
  better understand the value
  technology brings to development
  practice.
 The predominant FOSS technology support
  approach to promote autonomy among users
  inevitably raises the technical capabilities
  of people working in and with progressive
  NGOs and social movements.
 The range of FOSS choices and the fact that
  tools are customisable demands a solid
  engagement by NGOs and social movements
  around their technology needs, and leads to
  more informed technology decision-making.
What it's not for
(a.k.a. limitations, disclaimers or don't
   blame me if your system crashes)
 lousy documentation and steep
  learning curve for non-techies
 FOSS can often be a hard-sell
 BaseBox makes good FOSS resource
  more accessible, but it does not
  guarantee that users will
  automatically welcome migration.

NGO-In-a-Box - Pi Villanueva

  • 1. NGO-in-a-box Base Edition (BaseBox) OpenHubs Conference Alabel, Sarangani pi@womenshub.net
  • 2. What is NGO-in-a-box ? It is a series of toolkits designed to meet the specialised technology needs of non-profits. Each toolkit contains a selection of Free and Open Source Software and associated guides and tutorials.
  • 3. Current editions Security Edition - information and communication  security tools for human rights activists and journalists  Audio/Video Edition - a host of tools for creating and distributing audio and video content  Open Publishing Edition - a compilation of tools and materials for online and offline publishing  Mobile Phones Edition - a handbook and tool set for using mobile phones and telephony  Citizen Journalism Toolkit - a participatory media toolkit for audio making and online and offline publishing
  • 4. Reason for being To ‘demystify’ the use of technology for NGOs and activists, cutting down on the overwhelming choices NGOs face when trying to decide which software tools to use for which purposes. When using Free and Open Source Software these problems are amplified, often sending NGOs into un- tested and unfamiliar ground.
  • 5. What is the Base Edition of NGO-in-a-box? It is a collection of essential tools for running a small-to-medium sized NGO. You can use this toolkit to set up and coordinate your office, organise and manage projects, collaborate online and support your campaigns. The Box contains a set of peer- reviewed FOSS tools, with associated guides and tutorials, which provides users the technical foundations to build upon.
  • 6.  BaseBox (off-line edition) is targeted at users who have limited internet access.  3-CD box set comprising a printed booklet and CD with the contents of this website along with the profiled tools and related documentation and tutorials  available for download is a copy of the Ubuntu GNU/Linux operating system and a copy of the SME Server
  • 7. Tools inside BaseBox  Office Suites and Word Processing  Finance and Fundraising  Project Management and Collaboration  Volunteer and Staff Management  Web Browsers and Email  Instant Messaging and Telephony  Website Creation and Management  Basic Systems Administration
  • 8. Practical advantages to using FOSS  Cost effectiveness  Legality issues  Increased stability  Changing licensing conditions  No technology lock-in  Increased organisational flexibility  Enhanced cooperative culture  Extending life span of hardware and reducing waste  Ability to attract high-level skills at low cost
  • 9. Strategic value for NGOs and progressive social movements  Mission driven FOSS technology adoption processes help NGO staff better understand the value technology brings to development practice.
  • 10.  The predominant FOSS technology support approach to promote autonomy among users inevitably raises the technical capabilities of people working in and with progressive NGOs and social movements.  The range of FOSS choices and the fact that tools are customisable demands a solid engagement by NGOs and social movements around their technology needs, and leads to more informed technology decision-making.
  • 11. What it's not for (a.k.a. limitations, disclaimers or don't blame me if your system crashes)  lousy documentation and steep learning curve for non-techies  FOSS can often be a hard-sell  BaseBox makes good FOSS resource more accessible, but it does not guarantee that users will automatically welcome migration.
