Analysis on the strategies of Mozilla and Wiki communities on gender gap aspects: by Bhuvana Meenakshi — published Aug 28, 2019 — last modified Aug 28, 2019 01:27 PM
There is a need for research on how Open Source communities are trying to balance the gender ratio and how they provide the safe space environment to its contributors. With this in mind I have come up with this blog as I am an active contributor of Mozilla since 5 years and also got myself recently introduced to Wikimedia and its sister projects, have interacted with few Indian women contributors in both of these communities and came out with a few observations on how I see them in India and what could be improved in both communities.
