Open-design movement

Open-design is a movement that encourages people to share information, ideas and designs that anyone can use. It's a way of sharing with the world things that make our lives better, like inventions, free designs and software. By sharing, people can build on each other's ideas, creating new products and services. It's also a way for people to learn from each other and work together to make the world a better place - without the need for companies or money.
