How about a slight twist and have the Society of Liberating Technologies[1].

It doesn't sound quite as political, the "society" covers the grouping 
together of similar ideas/subcommittees, "liberating" is what is trying 
to be achieved, and "technologies" is the method being used to achieve 
the aim.

SeeYa,

[1] you can insert Austral(ia|asia) before or after if required
