As a global program, we are indebted to the passion and commitment of our friends far and wide to share about WebFWD in their respective networks. Those that want to make a specific commitment to doing so can join the ranks of our esteemed Scouts. We’ve recently added 2 more to our ranks, covering Gaza and New York City, respectively. We’re excited to have both of them as a part of our WebFWD community!

Fadel Waheed is a Mozilla contributor who just simply loves open source. He brings his technical and marketing skills to web lovers in the Gaza Strip, and is already scheduled to present on WebFWD in Egypt and Gaza this month!

Vanessa Hurst is a self-described data-focused technologist, Girl Scout, and lover of open web and open culture. She is the founder of Developers for Good & co-founder of Girl Develop It. She’s already shared some neat ideas with our team and we’re excited to have her on board to share about WebFWD in the New York City area.
