Since 2010, the GNOME Foundation's Outreach Program for Women has provided 130 women with an opportunity to participate in remote internships with twenty three free software organizations. It has helped participants become established free software contributors and has made a deep impact on the communities that have participated. We'll present what currently makes the program successful and will seek input from the audience about how the program can be expanded to offer opportunities to other underrepresented people, in addition to women.
