Mozilla is backed by an amazing and passionate community who not only contribute to and translate Mozilla software, but communicate the ways to get involved and share Mozilla's mission and values at local events. There are many opportunities to (for example) host a booth at an event, organize a local Mozilla meet-up, host an install day and teach people how to use Mozilla products everyday. Let's take advantage of all these occasions to build the Mozilla voice and spread the word.
How To Get Started
There are many ways to get started and a wealth of ideas and experiences to draw from.
Some ideas:
- Speaking about Mozilla topic at an event near you
- Helping other community members at an event
- Organizing your very own Mozilla event, such as a Mozilla Developer meet-up, a "How to use Firefox" session, a hackathon or a MozCamp
- Representing Mozilla at an already established event, such as a FOSS conference
- Submit a request for a Mozilla staff member to come and speak at your event
If you are going to speak about Mozilla at an event, do have a look at our information about Public Speaking.
Create an event page on the Reps Portal
- Login to ReMo and go to the Events page.
- Click on "Create event", at the top right.
- Fill out all information to the best of your knowledge :).
- Click on "Save event", at the top right.
- You are done! Now go check out the Events page. It will have your event listed alongside the other awesome ReMo events!
Handouts
There "used" to be a simple and clear introduction to the Mozilla project brochure that provided an overview of what Mozilla is and what our great community is doing. However, the link to the brochure is currently broken. A new link will be posted shortly, stay tuned!
Getting Support
Mozilla regularly supports community-driven events or projects that aim to promote Mozilla’s products and mission through financial assistance or with logistical support, as well as speakers for events.
Use the appropriate forms to request Swag, Budget, or a Speaker.
