Diversity and Inclusion for Communities and Contributors

Overview

The heart of Mozilla is people, and we are committed to being a diverse and inclusive community - one that invites in, and empowers everyone no matter their gender, sexual orientation, nationality, age, ability, socioeconomic status or religion (or lack thereof).

At Mozilla, we think of diversity as the mix of people, and inclusion as how we enable that diverse mix to work effectively together - to innovate and have impact on the mission we care so much about.

On the Open Innovation Team, we see our role helping elevate knowledge and leadership for D&I in Open Source as an opportunity to improve diversity in open source overall. Through collaboration and open knowledge sharing, 2019 will be about building bridges and surfacing critical problems and voices for the better of all open communities everywhere.
