Open Source started as a way to legally guarantee the ability to copy, modify and distribute software. Today it is the basis for a rapidly developing billion-dollar industry that uses the power of collective work to achieve its goals. Open Source has become a complex ecosystem based on collaboration and remix.

Most importantly, open standards guide technology development by gently enforcing more diverse and equitable spaces.

Diversifying Open Source will start by looking at the different faces of open source; unravelling diversity and labor issues for open source communities, and understanding open standards: what they are and how they can be used in tech projects by providing blueprints and examples and to propose a more accessible, balanced and maintainable ecosystem.
