Hello,

You’re the first to know that MozFest is officially accepting session ideas for our 2023 festival, through December 16, and the earlier you submit your idea, the better!

Are you ready to submit your session proposal?

Yes, I’m ready! No, but interested

2023 MozFest Spaces

Now that the Call for Proposals is open, we’re also thrilled to share this year’s Spaces. Think of Spaces at MozFest as mini-festivals. Within each Space, participants can find everything they need – interactive, community-led sessions, inspiring talks, art installations, lots of coffee, and community – all within a common theme. If you choose to submit a session proposal, you’ll need to decide on a Space in which to submit it:

Autonomy & Governance | Privacy, power, and data stewardship
Education & Access | You're the product of data
Humans Behind The Machine | Considering the humans below the algorithms
MoZone | Turning dreams of a better digital world into reality
Radical Inclusion Experience | Shaping AI to accommodate the diversity of humanity
Tech & Biodiversity: Legacy 2060 | Exploring sustainable digital futures
Utility of Transparency | Promoting responsible and informative transparency
Youth Zone | Creating ripples of change for future generations

If you aren’t sure about your idea for a MozFest session, reply to this email and let’s chat. I’d love to hear from you. Otherwise, I’ll keep an eye out for your proposal!

Towards Trustworthy AI,

MozFest Director
