Description
Open Source at the United Nations
Strategic Independence Across Layers of Governance
UN Open Source Week 2026 is the premier global forum for advancing open source collaboration in direct support of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Global Digital Compact. The event demonstrates how open source drives digital cooperation, fosters innovation, and enables sustainable public infrastructure, turning ideas into practical impact.
Through panels, workshops, hackathons, and community-led events, participants will connect to discuss real-world solutions and gain actionable insights in topics such as artificial intelligence (AI), Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) and Open Source Program Offices (OSPOs).
UN Member States, agencies, private sector organizations, civil society, and technical communities will gather to bridge the gap between high-level policy and practical implementation.
UN Open Source Week is co-organized by leading UN entities driving digital innovation and collaboration: The Office for Digital and Emerging Technologies (ODET) and The Office of Information and Communications Technology (OICT)
