1st MozCafe

Event report 1.0

Hello mozillians, Mozilla Pune community brings you a WoMoz event this January.

Few days back I was researching about WoMoz community, and I figured out that there is a great potential in it for women to show their skills and talent to whole world. Being a mozillian, with the motto of doing something good, I thought of taking an initiative to strengthen up the WoMoz community in Pune. I contacted Asavari Deokar an FSA from Cummins College for Women and briefed her about the initiative. Bingo !! She said "this looks like a great initiative and lets get started from my college". 

We planned out an initial WoMoz meetup. The basic motto of this meetup was to make women aware about womoz and opportunities in open source world. Along with it, we also decided to keep a session on "How to keep women safe ONLINE?"

On 30th Dec 2014, the date and venue was finalized and also an official permission was granted by principal of Cummins College. After the event got a nod from college authorities, we disclosed the event to Aman, Amruta and Prathamesh (FSA).

Aman came up with an idea of making the whole session interactive by conducting hands-on session that will motivate women to begin their journey in Open Source. Amruta and Prathamesh were also present, they helped in planning the event properly.

This time we have decided to break the conventional method of conducting events by incorporating new ideas. Wait for our post event reports to know the details.
