This page includes high-level and detailed plans and requirements for the Mozilla Foundation's 2015 key initiatives: Webmaker, Mentor Networks, and a new Leaders and Fellows initiative.

The Plan

This journey started 5 years ago in Barcelona at Learning, Freedom & the Web. We’ve experimented and adapted
 along the way -- developing Webmaker, Hive, Maker Party, our fellows programs. But the challenge remains the same: to radically empower individuals with the skills they need to make the web.

Start here. The high-level 2015 plan.

In 2015, we'll continue to build on what we've achieved with Webmaker, Hive, Maker Party, our fellows programs over the past few years. Specifically we plan to:

  • Improve and grow our local mentor programs (Hive, Maker Party, etc).
  • Build up an engaged user base for Webmaker, both mobile and desktop.
  • Prototype a simple leadership development program, test w/ fellows and ReMo.

We'll also work on plans in 2015 to pull our existing initiatives -- plus other programs like MDN -- into a bigger Mozilla Learning or Mozilla University initiative.

1) Mentor Networks

Focused on teachers and mentors. 2015 goal: Improve value to — and impact of — mentor network. Strategy: a) evolve Maker Party into a network of local clubs, b) grow more Hives.

2) Webmaker Product

Focused on makers and learners. 2015 goal: Grow engaged users. Strategy: Lower barriers to participation, focus on mobile, add social. Build community features that lead to more sustained involvement. Add online mentoring into the product. Experiment w. integrating Webmaker into Firefox and Firefox OS (aka "MakerFox.")

3) Leaders & Fellows

Focused on leaders and fellows. Develop leaders to protect the open web. 2015 goal: Create world class community leadership program. Strategy: Build on fellows, ReMo and super mentor, programs
