| MoJo is a three-year partnership between the Knight Foundation and Mozilla to harness open web innovation for journalism. Through a fellowship program that embeds developers in newsrooms around the world, the sponsorship of hackdays, organizing learning labs, and promoting journalism code, we will yield new tools, ideas, and news experiences that benefit both readers and newsmakers—all using open technologies. mozillaopennews.org | ||
What's new
OpenNews will be participating in the Mozilla Festival in London, November 9-11. Part of the Festival will be a "Source code for journalism" track with over a dozen sessions hacking and chatting about a variety of topics related to technology and journalism.
