Below are some key markers of work we examined throughout the year towards the festival, how we evolved the narrative for 2015 by looking back as well as to the next 5 years. As outlined in the Scottish retreat paragraph below, we didnt make this jounrney alone but with the help of many dedicated and inspiring staff, community and festival friends.

=== Architecture of Participation ===


In Mark Surman's latest blog post called [https://commonspace.wordpress.com/2015/02/15/participation-permission-and-momentum/ Participation, permission and momentum] he talks about a “more radical approach to participate” and the “Architecture of participation”. He wants us to change the way we connect with people to “get shit done”.

MozFest will be 6 years old this year and with Marks words in mind, we wanted to re-examine what the festival means to us as a team and how the festival can continue to still be our Agent for Change.
MozFest will be seven years old this year and ...


Looking at the festival as space agnostic we thought about our building blocks, '''Lead, Teach and Make'''. We discussed using these three elements as our themes for the festival. These three blocks representing our work are interlinked and aligned with each other.
[[image:Building blocks.png|500]]
:'''Lead''' - Our leaders are our fellows, our professional networks and community. The leaders are facilitating the mission and ideals of Mozilla. We campaign for change through our MoFo teams such as Policy, Journalism and Science.
:'''Teach''' - We teach through our learning networks, where we skill share and facilitate. Our clubs in our cities are teaching and organising, innovating youth and creating change agents.
:'''Make''' - Our product team are building and making new tools for the next generation to lead, connect, collaboration and are “getting shit done”.
How do we build with these blocks for MozFest 2015?

This the question we are currently working on. If you would like to join in the conversation send us your ideas to [mailto:festival@mozilla.org festival@mozilla.org]

=== First blocks ===
Laying the foundations for this years festival we have three strategic goals in mind
    1. Rally around a common cause: "Help people wield the web."
    2. Experience the Mozilla Learning vision.
    3. Be systematic about bringing, celebrating and up-leveling leaders.


With these goals in mind we will be working towards building a new narrative around the festival with some partners in June. During these couple of days at a retreat [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mozfest/2015/Mozretreat MozFest MozRetreat wikipage] we will examine how we can evolve the festival structure to be the starting block of our goals while holding onto the great energy that brings such imagination and inventiveness over the festival weekend.
