The Global BSD User Groups organization was founded to help promote local BSD user groups by helping to share ideas and experiences with other BUG organizations.
Goals

    * Foster inter-BUG relations and communications to increase unity in the BSD user group communities.
    * Assist in increasing awareness of smaller user groups in the community.
    * Facilitate idea and resource sharing through common access to meeting presentation topics and materials.
    * Increase exposure to other BSD projects where local user groups may have less member interest or experience.
    * Offer a BSD user group for those without a local BUG.

We’re working on ways to provide remote participation through streaming video of presentations.
