In order to apply for this track, we require Reps:
* to join a special training (planning for impact, how to run activities, etc)
* to organize at least one impactful zero-budget initiative
* to have all of their previous Bugzilla bugs closed


A local cap could be defined by the Review Team to avoid having too many people in the same region be in charge of resources. If current members are not supporting or performing correctly they could be replaced by new ones or if we have a lot of interested people, they can be rotated. Ideally we should have at least two people per region in this track to avoid bottlenecks.

Once you join the track you won’t be able to request budget for more than $500 until you have at least run two successfully impactful initiatives under $500. This cap could be ignored for Reps with a great past record of impactful initiatives.

How can I join?

In order to apply for this track, we require Reps:

  • to join a special training (planning for impact, how to run activities, etc)
  • to organize at least one impactful zero-budget initiative
  • to have all of their previous Bugzilla bugs closed

The Rep would be then reviewed by the Review Team to approve his/her application. The application form will be communicated once the track is open for applications.

A local cap could be defined by the Review Team to avoid having too many people in the same region to be in charge of resources. If current members are not supporting the community or performing as required they could be replaced by new ones, or if we have a lot of interested people, they can be rotated. Ideally we have at least two people per region in this track to avoid bottlenecks.

Once you join the track you won’t be able to request budget for more than $500 until you have at least run two successfully impactful initiatives under $500. This cap could be ignored for Reps with a great past record of impactful initiatives.

Region Minimum of Reps in this track Maximum of Reps in this track
Africa 5 7
Asia 25 30
Europe 17 18
Latin America 12 14
Middle East 2 2
