[Explore The Schedule](Q2/aVd6Q0FodjZKOVA2Z1BtNkNSdzdXWFlWNnFydUdXcm44WllKS0gvYTFwUGl3amxoRWV4ZEtoTG9nWmM3MlBRdlI0M2MrRHpoQUltYXBPY3BobmRmZVJmc3ZIQ0NBVFhWamlsOUJscU9DZDA9S0/) What is MozFest? MozFest is a unique hybrid: part art, tech and society convening, part maker festival, and the premiere gathering for activists in diverse global movements fighting for a more humane digital world. This year, we’re focusing on the collective power of people – the change makers, the developers, the artists, the educators, the activists, the learners, the interested – to better our digital landscape, build transformative systems, and sustain momentum within our community towards positive human and digital rights progress. What’s On The Schedule? MozFest is made up of Spaces which are thematic focus areas that contain sessions and experiences. Within each Space, you can find everything you need: interactive, community-led sessions, inspiring talks, art installations, and community.
