Grow 2014: Difference between revisions

The aim of the Grow Program is two-fold - first, we are aiming to grow and enhance the skills of our dedicated contributors with regards to their personal community building and evangelism skills. We will be working closely with chosen individuals through the rigorous program, both in general community building and within individual areas of expertise and interest. The second goal of the Grow Program is to scale the Mozilla Project in a meaningful way. Using the skills learned in the program, participants will be able to bring in highly engaged contributors into the project within their local communities, growing both their community and Mozilla as a whole.  

Again, it is important to note, the Grow Program is the next evolution of the former MozCamp events. As MozCamp has developed and changed over the past year, we felt the name should also change to better reflect the new nature and goals of the program. The renaming process was a collaborative effort that involved discussions and feedback from many groups of Mozillians. The “Grow” name was developed based on feedback collected in a survey sent to members of the community as well as discussions around the goals and objectives for the evolution of MozCamp – it also aligns with the larger Community Building program, Grow Mozilla.

2014 Grow events are being planned by a cross-organizational core team consisting of Mozilla contributors, especially Reps and MoFo/MoCo staff.
