This page contains planning materials for a proposed set of Mozilla Fo8undation programs collectively referred to under the umbrella term "Strategy 1". Strategy 1 planning takes existing Mozilla Foundation programs like Mozilla Accessibility and Mozilla Education and generalizes the approach to generate ideas and strategies for possible future programs.

Goals

Each Strategy 1 program is designed to address a particular problem relevant to the Mozilla project, while at the same time helping to accomplish larger goals related to the overall Mozilla mission. For example:

  • The Mozilla Accessibility program was designed to make Firefox and other Mozilla applications more accessible to people with disabilities, while at the same time advancing the larger goal of promoting the creation of open source assistive technologies and integrating accessibility concerns into the everyday practices of people developing advanced web applications.
  • The Mozilla Education program was designed to grow the community of people contributing to the Mozilla project and building on Mozilla technologies, while at the same time driving the teaching of open source technologies and practices in academia and helping to spark a new wave of participatory student-led learning.

Approach
