The festival will showcase our 5 internet health issues, with a special focus on our 2019 theme, Better Machine Decision Making. To engage with this theme, we will direct our audience of 2500+ to share personal reflections on how AI affects them personally, at work, and within their communities on and offline.
We are inviting friends and allies from across the Internet health movement for the position of wrangler who can expand our horizons, deepen our knowledge and help us shape the questions that matter. In turn, these questions will fuel the conversations, sessions and work at MozFest.
MozRetreat is the first stage of the wrangler journey, where we will connect, explore and collaborate on the festival narrative around which the festival weekend will be framed.
Purpose
Each year we bring together a group of volunteer wranglers from across different disciplines and geographies to design the festival narrative. We will gather this year's wranglers together for a 3-day retreat in Barcelona from the 6-10 May.
The MozRetreat is an opportunity for everyone to get to know each other, share their skills and start to collaborate on the design of MozFest.
