Review

2026 Special edition - Free/libre and open source software: Visions of openness from the Global South

"I think GISWatch is valuable for researchers and activists to take a view of general global situation and compare the situation of each country."
- Byoung-il Oh, Korean Progressive Network Jinbonet, South Korea
"The GISWatch is one of the most timely initiatives that seeks to document the global information society language which is crucial in this digital age. "
- Gopalakrishnan R, Society for Promotion of Alternative Computing and Employment, India
"I love the project and I think it is a very very unique snapshot of "the internet" and "the real world" - it is a global snapshot and horizon scan... it is very valuable for me to look back on the reports from all the countries and draw comparisons... it is like the story of the internet.. different chapters, different themes, every year :)"
- Mireille Raad, Lebanon - GISWatch author
