Afghanistan passed long period of darkness and war and now got the chance for rebuilding. This process is fully supported by Afghan society and new generation for a bright future.

Afghanistan Ubuntu Loco Team which is merged with Hubuntu (Herat Ubuntu Team) is started by students from Computer Science Faculty (CSF) in Herat University (HU).
The Afghanistan team will support the modifications needed to make Linux work for more in Afghanistan supporting localization and translation work and community awareness of the importance of Open Source / Ubuntu as a gateway.
Work will expand to support the distribution of CDs, Installation parties and LUGs. We will support people to unleash the power of Open Source to contribute to the development of Afghanistan.
