One of the most significant advantages of open-source software is its cost-effectiveness. Open-source software is free to use, modify, and distribute, which makes it an ideal solution for individuals and organizations in Africa, where financial resources are often limited. By promoting the use of open-source software, we help reduce the financial burden on educational institutions, businesses, and government agencies. This not only leads to substantial cost savings but also reduces the reliance on foreign currency for purchasing expensive proprietary software. Ultimately, our efforts contribute to creating a more self-sufficient and economically resilient technological landscape in Africa.
