LibreUmbria is a regional project in Umbria, Italy to adopt the open source office suite LibreOffice for regional and local governments, schools, and authorities. It is funded by the Umbria Region and involves over 2000 computers across various organizations. The project aims to share best practices and export the methodology to other public administrations, schools, small businesses, and citizens. It has also created an e-learning platform called LibreCampus to simplify training users, and conducted a pilot program called LibreUmbria@Scuola to train educators and parents in schools. Members of LibreUmbria also founded LibreItalia, the Italian community for LibreOffice.
