Mozilla Open Leaders Fellowship

Our seventh cohort of Mozilla Open Leaders starts in January 2019! We’re looking for Open Leaders to fuel the Internet Health movement by designing and building projects that empower others to collaborate within inclusive communities.

Tracks

There are two tracks in Mozilla Open Leaders 7. Both tracks follow the same 14 week schedule, but meet at separate cohort times.

Project Track

The Project Track focuses on setting up a specific open project alongside people doing similar work. (Cohorts A-D, Tuesday and Wednesday meetings)

Culture Track

The Culture Track focuses on building an open culture in any community, organization, or project with people from a variety of projects. (Cohorts E-F, Thursday meetings)

It might be especially useful to you if you:

• Work day to day within your community to promote openness.
• Lead cultural change in your community, organization, or project.
• Serve in a particular outreach role to help people make change on a peer-to-peer basis.

Who is this for?

If you (or your team) are running or starting an open project and want to grow as an open leader this is for you! Your open project doesn’t have to be technical — it can be curriculum (open educational resource), an open data project or report, an open source software project, or anything else that:

• has something to work on (a feature, module, or minimum viable product) during the program,
• allows and welcomes contributions by others, and
• supports the open web and a healthy Internet

Eligibility Criteria

• Passionate and ready to learn and apply open practices to your project or community, supporting the Internet Health movement
• Available to commit at least 3h/week for 14 weeks for attending weekly online meetings and completing open leadership assignments.
• Additionally, participants must demonstrate practical experience at the Mozilla Global Sprint (2 days, March 29-30, remotely or at a local site). If you are participating in our pilot culture track, you’ll be expected to present a case-study of your learning to your cohort instead.

Applications close November 30th 11:59pm ET
