'''Target audience''': Advanced teacher and mentor individuals and organizations<br><br>


'''Context:'''
'''Launch Hive Global''' as a team that will:
* Mozilla runs or helps grow a series of ‘Hive Learning Networks’ in 15 cities at various stages of development with local communities of teachers, mentors, schools, libraries, museums, etc. committed to promoting web literacy and new approaches to learning. The teachers and mentors in these networks work together to offer innovative programs for youth across their city.
* '''Grow # of Hive cities from 15 to 25'''. Particularly in Asia and Africa (Bangalore and Mombasa).
* Mozilla currently runs Hive networks in New York, Chicago, Toronto, Chattanooga and Kansas City. Nascent networks are emerging in the U.K., Bangalore,  Seattle and San Francisco. There are also Hive networks not operated directly by Mozilla but which are a part of the global network.
* '''Support MacArthur Foundation Cities of Learning initiative'''. Get teachers and mentors involved by establishing credentials that translate into career and college readiness through civic partnerships.
 
* '''Set up a Hive Lab model'''. Get teachers and mentors developing digital literacy tools and curriculum.
'''Launch Hive Global'''. In 2015, we will officially launch Hive Global as a team that helps to grow these initiatives. This group will:
* '''Develop a set of Hive badges''' to recognize and motivate mentors.
* Grow the number of official Hive cities from 15 to 25, with a specific mandate to grow in Asia and Africa (Bangalore and Mombasa).
* '''Document the Hive model.''' So interested groups can test out Hive ideas in new cities.
* Support MacArthur Foundation Cities of Learning initiative, getting teachers and mentors involved in this work via establishment of credentials that translate into career and college readiness through civic partnerships.
* '''Deepen connection with existing Mozilla and Mozilla-aligned networks'''. Like Open Science, Policy and ReMo.
* Set up a Hive Lab model which gets teachers and mentors to participate in the development of digital and web literacy tools and curriculum.
* Build off recent success stories. (e.g., Hive Pittsburgh launched Digital Corps to train people to teach webmaking. Hive Bangalore used webmaker clubs to draw interest from other partners and groups around a broader digital literacy network.)
* Develop a set of Hive badges to recognize and motivate mentors.
* Document the Hive model so it is easy for interested groups to start testing out Hive ideas in new cities.
 
Build how Hive sets the table for Webmaker people, product and programs to thrive within while also being the pioneers in recruiting new cities to join Hive. We have dynamic examples of both, we need to learn from them and have that become more commonplace. Examples:
* Hive Pittsburgh launched Digital Corps that trains people to teach webmaking throughout the city
* Hive Bangalore used webmaker clubs as a way to draw interest from other partners and groups on the idea for a broader digital literacy network
 
Connect more deeply with existing Mozilla and Mozilla-aligned networks that have plans for linking mentor/learning communities like Open Science, Policy and ReMo to bridge networks and grow individual and organizational capacity
