=== 2018 Festival Narrative ===


Three days each year, we gather together and discuss, debate, create and hack to build a better Internet

We want to do our duty as outlined in the Mozilla Manifesto: Ensure the Internet is a global public resource, open and accessible to all. That means teaching web literacy to more people in more places. It also means asking hard questions about what an ‘inclusive Internet’ really means. We need to actively address the challenges faced by people who don't yet feel they are welcome on the Web. And we mean to do this at the festival.

===MozFest Spaces===
Spaces are physical and thematic learning hubs based around a broad topic.
In 2017 we have 6 spaces which people can submit sessions proposals under. They are;


*'''Privacy & Security''' - Do you want to feel more safe online? You’re not alone: privacy and security have never been more top-of-mind for everyday Internet users. Participants in this year’s Privacy & Security space will leave feeling informed, empowered, and ready to lead themselves and others to secure their personal data.
** ''Space Wranglers: Jenn Beard, Teon Brooks, Mehan Jayasuriya, Mandy Rawlings, David Ross, Vojtech Sedlak''
<br>
*'''Openness''' - Openness on the web extends to many disciplines, from software and hardware to education, research, journalism, and politics. Join us to discuss, share experiences, and learn how to work open. Come with an open mind!
** ''Space Wranglers: David Bild, Mariano Blejman, Dennis Ndegwa, Princiya Sequeira, Marcos Vital, Stephanie Wright, Yo Yehudi''
<br>
*'''Decentralization''' - In this parallel dimension, people self-organise into open groups that create art, write code, and even build cities. Journey to a new world and bring back powerful, resilient technology; explore radical, paradigm-shifting ideas; and take part in cutting-edge discourse.
** ''Space Wranglers:Mark Boas, Kade Morton, Natasha Pillai, Ross Schulman, Tendai Tirivanhu''
<br>
*'''Web Literacy''' - In the Web Literacy space, we'll help you understand and harness the power of today’s Internet. Whether you're a new user just starting to use the web or are a power user who's always online, you'll learn something new in this space. We'll help you understand the importance of controlling your data, and how it relates to your online experience.
** ''Space Wranglers: Juma Baldeh, Geraldo Barros, Winnie Makokha, Priyanka Nag, Berhan Taye, Ryan Warsaw''
<br>
*'''Digital Inclusion''' - Here we will discover the forces — of history, of society, of technology — that keep people off the web and prevent the web from evolving. We'll witness how new, unheard voices and ideas can transform the web. Together, we'll explore, invent, and share technology, design, and activism to bring more people than ever online.
** ''Space Wranglers: Daniel Lucio, Carolina Tejada, Jon Tutcher, Edoardo Viola''
<br>
*'''Youth Zone''' - Here we will discover the forces — of history, of society, of technology — that keep people off the web and prevent the web from evolving. We'll witness how new, unheard voices and ideas can transform the web. Together, we'll explore, invent, and share technology, design, and activism to bring more people than ever online.
** ''Space Wranglers: Dervla O'Brien, Tina Gotschi, Emrys Green, Alan McCullagh, Andrew Mulholland, Marie-jubilee Muntunkaye, Simone Ram, Chad Sansing, Victor Sansing, Joseph Thomas''
<br>
The Space Wranglers leading this key topics are from across our Network, made up of staff and partners. Without their dedication and creativity MozFest 2017 would be a very different festival so MozFest thanks them sincerely.

===Theme Wrangling===
This year we are proud to announce we will have Artist Open studios at MozFest curated by the digital learning teams at The Tate and Victoria & Albert Museum.

We will also continue to develop theme wrangling which are interwoven themes between our Spaces bringing our participants through the festival narrative. These themes are a selection of sessions but also experiences with a clear learning objective. More information to follow as this piece of the fesitval develops
