- <p>The next round of the Outreach Program internships will have an application deadline on March
24, 2015, and internship dates from May 25 to August 25. Coding, design, documentation and other projects
will be available. The applicants will be asked to select a project with one of the participating
organizations and collaborate with a mentor listed for that project to make a relevant contribution to the
project during the application process. The organizations that will participate in the next round have not
yet been determined, but starting to contribute to one of the <a
href="https://wiki.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen#Participating_Organizations">organizations that
participated in the past</a> will help prepare to apply for an internship with any organization. Many of the
mentors participating in the program are happy to offer informal mentorship any time throughout the year. <a
href="https://wiki.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen">Detailed information</a>
about the background for the program, requirements for participants, how to select a project, and how to

administrators of both programs will coordinate to accept the top applicants for one of the programs.

- <p> The accepted participants work remotely, while being guided by their mentor, and receive
$5,500 stipend. It's expected that the participants are able to have the internship work be a primary focus
during the internship dates and spend 40 hours a week on it.

<h2>About</h2>
- <p>The Outreach Program for Women (OPW) was inspired by Google's Summer of Code and by how few
women applied for it. The GNOME Foundation first started the OPW with one round in 2006, and then resumed the
effort in 2010 with rounds organized twice a year. In the May-August 2012 round, the Software Freedom
Conservancy joined the OPW with one internship with the Twisted project. In the January-April 2013 round,
many other free and open source organizations joined the program. In the December 2014-March 2015 round, the
program was expanded to the more general Outreach Program, which engages people from various underrepresented
groups.</p>
