Call for Outreachy December 2020 mentors and projects

Hi all,

Debian is participating in the Outreachy [0] internship program. Outreachy's goal is to support people from groups underrepresented in the technology industry. Interns will work remotely with mentors from our community.

We are seeking mentors to propose projects that Outreachy interns can work on during their internship.

Sept. 24, 2020 at 4 pm UTC is the deadline to submit projects through CFP [1] page.

If you want help crafting your project proposal, please contact the Debian coordinators via outreach@debian.org .

Mentors should read the mentor FAQ[2].

Full details about the Outreachy program and the internship timeline can be found on the Call for Participation page on the Outreachy website[3].

You can also view the past projects [4] on the Outreachy website as
well as refer to the Debian wiki page for guidelines [5].

We recently hosted a session [6] at DebConf20 for mentors and students to
share their experience.

Please submit your project ideas and help newcomers to contribute to
Debian and open source.
