We're designing the next era of technical grantmaking at Mozilla Foundation. And because we believe in working open, we’re sharing our thinking now, even as it is evolving.
True to our roots in open-source, we intend to go about the Foundation’s work transparently, learning and iterating in the open. Working openly isn’t just for products – it’s a set of principles we want to bring to everything we do, whether it’s advocacy or grantmaking or community-building.
Both as a concept and a built reality, artificial intelligence (AI) is poised to further separate us. But it won’t if we reform the ways it’s created and deployed around the world now.
