What is Mozilla Voices?
Mozilla Voices is going to be a world class platform showcasing the ideas, organizations, communities, movements and individuals who best exemplify how open systems empower people to reach their fullest potential.
Mozilla Voices is not about Mozilla, or Firefox, or Firefox OS. Mozilla Voices is not a mirror, but a window we use to view the world.
We advocate that Open Systems create healthier and more successful societies. We will be covering everything from open source to open government and the need for transparency; privacy and security, the "Internet of Things" vs. "pervasive computing" and the role of education and if it's keeping up with the technological changes.
The bottom line? Open is better.
What are the goals?
- To create a deeper relationship with the Mozilla community of users and the audience beyond
- To enable communities to become involved at multiple levels
- Three things are necessary to achieve these objectives:
- Create compelling, original content
- Do smart content aggregation and curation
- Be proactive in our audience development
Who is involved?
Mozilla Voices is part of the Engagement team under Mary Ellen Muckerman, VP Brand Strategy & Services.

- Jennifer Bertsch, Product Manager
