ODF Alliance

The ODF Alliance is an international organization that promotes the use of the Open Document Format (ODF), a free and open software standard for creating, sharing, and editing office documents like word processing files, spreadsheets, and presentations. Its goal is to ensure software interoperability, vendor neutrality, and user choice by encouraging the adoption of open standards. This helps avoid vendor lock-in, supports data longevity, and fosters a competitive, accessible software ecosystem. The alliance works with governments, companies, and communities to implement and advocate for open document standards worldwide.
