🌍 Project Information

📎 Summary

Update the Reps Platform to provide an easier and more streamlined tool for the Reps to facilitate their work. Look at opportunities to expand current or upgraded technology to other parts the Mozilla. Before any new work can be prioritized, the current Reps Portal needs a large lift update to continuing operation as is. After that, new work that addresses some known ‘work arounds’ from current technological limitations can start.

This project is part of the larger Participation Systems initiative.

More details will come at the end of Phase 2 - Research.
