Community is the backbone of the Mozilla project. As the Mozilla project grows in scope and scale, community needs to be strengthened and empowered accordingly. This is the central aim of the Mozilla Reps program: to empower and to help push responsibility to the edges in order to help the Mozilla contributor base grow.
Reps are passionate Mozillians who mobilize and develop functional and local/regional Mozilla communities. They are committed to educate and empower people to support Mozilla’s mission and contribute to the project based on Mozilla’s leadership agreements 2.
 
Reps are community coordinators interested in:
 
* finding and connecting new talent with Mozilla projects they are contributing to
* developing communities on a functional or local level
* supporting local communities and Mozilla to have an effective and decentralized environment for contribution
* creating collaborations with adjacent communities to spread Mozilla’s mission and expand Mozilla’s outreach in the open source ecosystem
* collecting local knowledge from Mozilla communities to inform and inspire Mozilla’s strategy, activities and priorities


The Mozilla Reps program provides a simple framework and specific  tools to help volunteer Mozillians become official representatives of  Mozilla in their region. Anyone who is passionate and knowledgeable  about Mozilla and who is ready to dive deeper into the project can  sign-up to the program. The Mozilla Reps program helps push  responsibility and authority further outwards, to more Mozillians,  making it much easier for volunteers to organize and/or attend events,  recruit and mentor new contributors, and better support their local communities.
Reps are not a power structure over other Mozillians; instead, they are here to help, empower and inspire people to contribute to Mozilla projects.


When joining the program, a Mozilla Rep agrees to take on the following responsibilities:  
The Reps Program is open to everyone above 18 years of age who have been contributing to Mozilla for at least 6 months. Following are the benefits of joining the Reps Program:

Although anyone can sign-up to become a Mozilla Rep, that doesn't  mean you automatically become a Mozilla Rep after submitting your application. Because Mozilla Reps are entrusted with new  responsibilities and special tools to speak on Mozilla's behalf, to manage budgets, events and swag, each application is carefully reviewed by the Mozilla Rep council and each applicant, if shortlisted, must pass a short interview before offically becoming a Mozilla Rep.

Welcome to the Mozilla Reps program wiki. Reps are passionate Mozillians who mobilize and develop functional and local/regional communities. They are committed to empowering others to contribute to Mozilla projects.



Overview

Reps are passionate Mozillians who mobilize and develop functional and local/regional Mozilla communities. They are committed to educate and empower people to support Mozilla’s mission and contribute to the project based on Mozilla’s leadership agreements 2.

Reps are community coordinators interested in:

  • finding and connecting new talent with Mozilla projects they are contributing to
  • developing communities on a functional or local level
  • supporting local communities and Mozilla to have an effective and decentralized environment for contribution
  • creating collaborations with adjacent communities to spread Mozilla’s mission and expand Mozilla’s outreach in the open source ecosystem
  • collecting local knowledge from Mozilla communities to inform and inspire Mozilla’s strategy, activities and priorities

Reps are not a power structure over other Mozillians; instead, they are here to help, empower and inspire people to contribute to Mozilla projects.

The Reps Program is open to everyone above 18 years of age who have been contributing to Mozilla for at least 6 months. Following are the benefits of joining the Reps Program:

  • Access to a global community which includes people from many different countries and cultural backgrounds
  • Direct support from Mozilla to help you empower others in your region to advance Mozilla’s goals
