== What's New<br>  ==

We are gearing up to launch the 2011 Innovation Challenges<br> 

*Challenge 1 - How can we use open video make tell stories in new ways? (opens April 25) 
*Challenge 2 - How can open web technology improve the quality of online discourse? (opens May 9) 
*Challenge 3 - How can news organizations use HTML5 to deliver high-quality journalism across devices and platforms? (opens May 23)<br>

== The vision  ==

Mozilla cares a lot about the future of news. Journalism and the open web are built on common values. And, like the web, the future of journalism lies in universal access and participation. 

By this time next year, newsrooms around the globe will be tapping ideas, software—and, most importantly, people—that emerged from this partnership. 

News should be universally accessible across phones, tablets, and computers. It should be multilingual. It should be rich with audio, video, and elegant data visualization. It should enlighten, inform, and entertain people, and it should make them part of the story. 

For the next three years, we'll imagine and build stuff to advance the state of the art in web-based journalism. All that work will be open source, and available for others to use and build upon. Help us bring open web innovation to the news biz. 

== The news partners  ==

These five organizations will host our 2011 fellows. Interested in hosting a fellow in 2012? Please read our [[Drumbeat/Mojo/Selection|selection criteria]] and [mailto:njames@mozillafoundation.org get in touch]!
