Informaticiens Sans Frontières (ISF, or Software Without Borders) is an independent non-profit organization founded by a team of computer experts that took part in the development of the early web in the 1990s. Their principal mission is to help bridge the Digital Divide by proposing solutions at the global level and implementing them locally. ISF’s work deals with a wide range of development issues: from reducing health risks (MalariaControl software packages) to capacity building projects in Africa (“Made in Africa NGO Network” - MANGO) that also aim to generate employment.
