Through increasing diversity and inclusion, this challenge will act as an accelerator for uncovering and fostering creativity and encouraging serendipitous discovery and collaboration by helping people and projects in the ecosystem connect and collaborate.

Investing sufficiently to increase diversity in our community will pay off more and more over time as the community grows. The purpose of this challenge is to ensure that we put enough attention on encouraging projects that increase diversity and grow our community to many different parts of the planet, and include more and more voices from diverse communities and demographics. Additionally, this budget will help support translations and accessibility improvements, bring in initiatives and projects that remove barriers, ease onboarding, and welcome diverse participants.
