EU Code Week / Africa Code Week

We were invited to either organize an event during the EU Code week and Africa Code week or join an event that has been organized by other people. To add your event to our Coding Map of Europe please visit the events page. You can use #codeEU Toolkit for organizers and a list of resources to help get started.

If you need help or have a question you can get in touch with EU Code Week Ambassadors in your country.

Bangladesh Community meetup

Core members of the Bangladesh community got together for the first time and worked on planning the launch of Webmaker in Bangladesh: very ambitious goal: 10000 downloads!

They also started thinking about the projects that will come after Webmaker: a push for Fennec (Firefox for Android). Most smartphone users in Bangladesh are on Android so there’s a great opportunity for Mozilla there.

What’s going on at community forums?

There are some interesting conversations that are currently going on at the community forums you might want to check out:

Also as a reminder, the Participation team has its own public category where the team communicates their daily work.
